my lastest concern about myself is that i am getting old. you may laugh, but 30 is right around the corner next year! i have started noticing some wrinkles coming along around my eyes...new ones that are just starting to appear. i still feel young, but gah-lay my youth is inevitably going to go away. My dad would always tell me, whenever i would get on my getting old kicks, he would say, "well, you know what happens when you stop getting older...." see, i get my sarcasm honestly. apparently i got that from him as well as his gray hair and wrinkle gene. remember this song that came out a few years ago....well...isn't it appropriate!!!!!
Wrinkles - Diamond Rio
Gettin' out of the tub all drawn up like a raisin
Showed my fingers to my Daddy while he was shavin'
Said look at my toes Dad what's wrong with my skin
Will this go away, will I be normal again
Well he picked me up and set me down on the hamper
Wiped off his face while he gave me the answer
It was the first time I noticed lines in his grin
As he dabbed a little foam on the end of my chin, he said
Those wrinkles ain't nothin' to be scared of
They're just a product of time and true love
Some are gonna come and go
Some are gonna come and stay
Son, you're still young, you're gonna be ok
Well I walked down the hall, saw my Momma gettin ready
For a long over due date, dinner with Daddy
She was cussin' those crows feet, didn't know I was listenin'
Started talkin' ‘bout her younger years
And how much she missed them and I said
Those wrinkles ain't nothin' to be scared of
They're just a product of time and true love
Some are gonna come and go
Some are gonna come and stay
Mom you still look young, you're gonna be ok
As I get a little older, I'm startin' to get a few
And I'm sure I gave Mom and Dad at least one or two
We're all gonna have ‘em, there ain't no doubt
But those wrinkles in life ain't nothin' you can't iron out
Those wrinkles ain't nothin' to be scared of
Some are gonna come and go
Some are gonna come and stay
I still feel young, I'm gonna be ok
Those wrinkles ain't nothin' to be scared of
