ME getting older does not scare me. Words of my Grandfather back in 1978 does.

I had JUST turned 11 and he had just lost his best two friends. One went back to the 19teens. He looked me in the eye and said ....... "There is nothing worse or frightening than getting old and watching people close to you pass away. " I am only 53 and have already lost the three of my immediate family and MY two best friends. I know it's the old circle of life but it's a bit unsettling.
