old

.when did we grow old?

an uncle's death made my better half ask the question....

when did we? when did i? must have been when you i saw a youngling look up at you trying to get your attention. must have been when i placed a handful of soil on top of a mound to say goodbye. must have been when i became aware that black has turned white. must have been when a flight up was much easier last time around. must have been the time i finally understand what rotund and morbidly obese really is. and just right about ... now.
