Getting older is a privilege of a few, have you ever thought about it? Not everyone has the opportunity to reach the third age of life. We cannot know how much time we have available, so we should try to enjoy every moment we are given by putting aside complaints.
There are people who complain because they are getting old or because they have fear of getting old. In fact, it is not always easy to grow old in a society that would always take us young, where white hair and wrinkles become defects to be hidden.
