Life in Old age

Winter can be a depressing time of year especially for older people living alone, but it could also be a time of reflecting on the past. The evening sun fades and gives way to shadows of darkness. Youth also fades and gives way to old age. Sitting alone in the dark and gloom of winter it’s good to know that the memory stores bright sunny days of times gone by, times of our youth when we were busy bringing up a family and enjoying life to the full. How swiftly the year’s pass, not only for us but for our children who have all grown up and moved on leaving us behind. Winter for me can never be depressing when there are countless additions to the family, books to be read, articles to be written, speaking appointments to be delivered, and so many blessings to reflect on.#inspirational
