(#6267) I am a young/old soul inside my old body

      I like to think I am a young soul at heart but that isn't completely true. I am definitely a mix of both young and old. I am fine with that since the young part of my soul keeps me vibrant and curious while the old part of me tempers my acts and behaviors with some forethought. I am no grand wise person, only occasionally cautious. Which suits me since my opportunities to be crazy and outlandish are at a minimum nowadays. Heck, just getting up out of bed can be a struggle. lol. Make no mistake about that getting up out of bed action as I must organize myself into a position of ease to accomplish it thus my old body being challenged to cautiously maneuver as a rule.
     What I like most about the young part of my soul though is that I am not living in a nutshell. I am a bit unpredictable as to my thoughts and expectations. I am thus still enjoying life beyond the expected limitations that normally bound the aged. I allow for living life outside the normal. Not a lot but still I do more than what is just expected of me. It may be the end of me as a cost but life has been a gas even though some in it are real bummers. But I control me and that is my destiny. As long as I still feel life coursing through my veins I will continue to purpose myself to experience it. I am no one to settle in for the end of life I am the opposite. Well mostly anyway.
     As the young part of me keeps me actively spending my time beyond my own inner thoughts, my older self reflects on the past, present and how I will consider the future. Funny that in that I am such a pragmatist, older soul, who is paired with a clown, younger soul. Not a clown in the sense of a fool, but in the sense of finding the happy in life through even the smallest actions of ordinary life. This topic is so weird for me to be writing about but it has been floating around inside my head as a concept for a bit of time. So today it has taken form and now I feel Like I have uncovered the message it has been fleetingly exposing. May we all enjoy the young/old soul paradigm to draw from within us throughout our lives.
