caveat emptor

the glory of young men is their strength, but the splendor of old men is their gray hair.
- prov 20:29

i lose my youthful impunity 
face my mortality
mourn the limber quickness
acknowledge the pain
become quieter
and gentler
and humbler 
and more broken.

it isn't so bad a deal, thank God.
