Ageing
As much as age is a concrete reality, it is also an ethereal illusion. We all have to make that journey through time, from starting point to destination, from birth to death. Yet our travel experiences are all unique. We pass through the same landscapes – of infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and maturity. And yet how we each view the scenery will be different. Each stage en-route has its own virtues and vices – the innocence and dependence of infancy, the curiosity and tantrums of childhood, the passion and rebellion of adolescence, the productivity and routines of adulthood, and the wisdom and aches of maturity.
