'N the allternative is........

"I yam what I yam" Popeye
“I reminisce about the days of old with that old time rock ‘n roll........” Bob Seger
Back in the ‘way back when’ time, life seemed so much simpler....In the here ‘n now, life is sooooo complicated....
I wuz talkin’ to an old friend who complained that he wuz just sittin’ around gettin’ fatter, that he cudn’t do what he used to do an’ didn’t p’tickly want to do what he was able to do t’day.....seems he never planned on living so long.......I had to agree with him as I never, ever pictured myself as growing old.......I knew that aging is inevitable, a part of the process of life.....but, what you know intellectually doesn’t always compute emotionally...
When you’re young, you’re young forever.....it’s hard to look ahead and your only reference about what’s to come is what has been and there ain’t that much what has been behind you......, at least, near as I c’n figure out, what I’m saying is that foresight is based on hindsight....

Keep your ear to the ground, your nose to the grindstone and your eye on the prize....win, lose, or draw, you’re gonna be uncomfortable. Justin Other Smith
