I am getting older and I must strive for that life with God in heaven

in #lifelast month

One aspect that I do not like about getting old are the physical changes it does to our bodies although sometimes we get more better as we age in many aspects but we must not cling to this life but with God in heaven where happiness is everlasting.

I saw one of my former classmates in Facebook, she resembled like what she looked like from what I last remembered seeing her, of course she had matured more but to the extent that I feel like I am more than two decades your than her. It is because my general image or appearance never had changed, so if you would not consider my bone changes, I still look like I was till 16 years old. My voice however had been affected by my skeletal problem because my neck bones had been crooked plus my lungs cannot sustain much of the air that I needed to complete a short sentence when I speak to the point that I sounded like I am retarded person now, that is is why I do like to speak so much with other people nor ever converse to them on a normal way because my voice sounds abnormal and funny in a negative way not in my favor.

Personally I feel more awkward as add more numbers in my age and being accompanied by my parents in wherever I wanted to go. Not looking like my age also helps but I feel like I was stuck in my late teenage years.

But of course all of the existing creatures now had added years in their birthdays until some already reached their maximum point of living via a myriad of causes while many had changed in appearance like "aged like fine wine" while others aged like a vehicle brake pad. My point is that I am struggling about this fact of life because for example , the movie characters that I wanted to watch can never happen again because they aged. or my immediate family members dying before my time, and this one, that I am growing tired about life already unlike in my younger years where everything is like an adventure, fun, exciting, I have more physical vigor, and also hope to make it big in life although the latter seems to came true, I can never enjoy it now like a normal person can do but at least it had made my future more secure than I can ever imagine. Anyway, I just hate getting old because all of the things around me gets old too and then go away either suddenly or through the normal course of the times on life. I do not want to discuss the other bad aspect of living longer but I just want to convey is that because of the ravages of time upon all things including this world that we are living into will also disappear, it still affects my emotions to that point that upon thinking about it, it makes me sad. That is why we should not cling unto this world which is temporary but to persevere in being with God in heaven where joy and happiness is everlasting and there are no more sadness anymore.

We are indeed like flowers in this world, would grow up, show our beauty and grandeur, and then wilt and die. Not really a good life isn't it? because it is all temporary. It is just heavenly to realize that there is far more better life than this one and that is life with God in heaven and that we should strive for in going to when there is still a chance while we are still living.
