What to do When People Around You Want You to Feel Young?

This is my story.

 

Every one wants to look young without making an effort for it. I am no exception.

 

About a week back, me and my wife went to smart Bazar to purchase a tea shirt for me. We started screening the stock and ultimately zeroed on a good T shirt. Size and everything were perfect. We started looking for colour of our choice. It was available in three colours, black, white, grey and red. I opted for black colour; my wife selected red colour Tea Shirt for me. I am sure you know what was finally selected. We landed up bringing up red colour T shirt for me. I was quite surprised with choice of my wife because earlier we never picked up a red colour T shirt for me.

 

Red colour signifies energy while black colour is contracting colour , you look good and a bit thin even if you have put on weight .

 

We came back.

 

Next morning, my wife went for a walk, I was busy in some work so opted out of it. Same sequence was repeated for two more days. Forth day, my wife told me, there is no gain without pain.

 

“You want to look young?”

 

I nodded.

 

“That day we brought the red colour T shirt for you, you are yet to put that on.”

 

“I can just put it on, where is the issue?”

 

“Yes, you can but you have a choice here, you want to feel young or look young or have both?”

 

“I want to have both, feeling as well as looks ...but please note I am already sixty and it may not be possible to have that look or feel as I grow old. Obviously, we cannot do that much exercise which we used to do in earlier days.” I thought my justification was quite convincing.

 

“Nobody tells you to do that much exercise now, but at least make an effort to justify purchase of red T shirt for you?”

 

Now, I understood the game of red colour T Shirt for me, next three days have passed in five km walk daily plus some exercise and today I am wearing that T shirt.

 

I have to make consistent effort to put this on as the time passes and as we grow old but one thing is clear, one has to earn his health, feelings and looks every day more so after sixties. But more than that, oldies beware, you are not old unless people around you are not ready to accept you old.

 

Be careful as you get some special attention in your homes, more red colour T Shirts are coming in the way. If you want to feel young, be prepared to clean the fans of the home every month. These exercises make you young and vibrant.

 

Hope it gives all of us a good sense and direction.
