Time Doesn't Stand Still
My dad turned 70-years-old this past Wednesday. It's weird to think that I have a parent that is in their 70's. I think it's because my mom died so young. She will forever be 46-years-old in my mind. She will never be old and gray. Fortunately, my dad is a young 70. But still, it's sort of a reality check. He won't be around forever. He may not always be healthy either. To be honest, it kinda scared the shit out of me. As much as it sucks that I never got to know my mom on an adult level, I suppose the bright side (if there is one) is that I never had to watch her age or deteriorate. I literally can't image what she would look like if she were alive today, at the age of 65. Well, I can a little bit, because my aunt looks and sounds just like her. Although, she is 10 years my mom's junior. Yeah, it's just weird.tirade by Jenster at
