Aging

"I don't want to get old."

It's that persistent voice in my head again, and it gets really loud every time I'm around old folks.

I hope someday this voice shuts up. 

For now, I use it to scare myself into getting in shape and staying healthy -- watch my caloric intake and cholesterol level, get more sleep, aim for work-life balance, get some cardio, etc.

I don't mind aging, I just pray I stay healthy for as long as I can.
