I wasn't always old and ugly!

Just as we all have an inner child that needs to be acknowledged, respected, loved and sometimes healed...let's not forget that we all have an inner elder that will be revealed over time. Let's make sure we have treated him or her with the respect we hope they will deserve. Start today, if you haven't started already, by becoming the best you that you can be!

Yes, @twiceuponatime and I were getting along a little better back in those days. I'm afraid that @twiceuponatime hasn't aged as well as I have. He's gotten cynical and crotchety. :-)

Hahahahahahaha. Nice banter.

My inner elder... What a great way to look at it. You have given me something to ponder today while I work. Thanks for the fantastic post!

I tried to ponder once, but it hurt my head :-)
Good luck!

Use your ears to ponder instead! Then you’ll have earache! LoL

@onceuponatime,
Who said you are old? Once upon a time you was old and had six packs. But now you seems younger and has more packs ;)

Yup, they call me pack-man (but only behind my back).

We all are ... @onceuponatime, right? :-)

Nope. Just me and @twiceuponatime are @onceuponatime. It's not an easy job :-)

You have been working too hard! Have a good rest!

I loved this post!! :)

We should all treat ourselves with respect cause we tend to care to much about everyone else around us and we forget about us. Then nothing seems to work. You cannot truly care about anyone if you don't love yourself first.

Unfortunately we reject and repress, then project, the "unlovable" parts of ourselves instead of transforming them by loving them.

That's true... Taking an honest look at ourselves it's the right thing to do... But without being judgmental and hating what we consider wrong..

I can only imagine how being old must suck, I'm not anxious for it at all...! :D
But it definitely must have its advantages.

Sometimes being young sucks a whole lot worse (because one can be so damn ignorant when one is young -but full of a pompus attitude anyway, LoL). But then again, one can be old and ignorant too :-)

Indeed, god help us from being old and ignorant, that's the absolute definition of a "sucker".

this is party time...🤩 you are pretending to be aged...🤩 🤩

Sounds like you will use any excuse for a party! :-)

🤩 🤗

You had much stronger, fitness body now than younger age. You're younger yet.

My mirror - but it might have a grudge againt me. I am always changing and it has a hard time keeping up :-)

You’re only as old as you feel I always say

Age is nothing to do with the life energies. Do you know yogi, mystic and visionary Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev? His inner engineering program mainly focuses on life energy.

Not personally. Do you?

Yes right now I am taking his inner engineering online program.

Be sure to take some "before" and "after" photos and make a post!

It is not any fitness or physique changing program. It is kind of yoga and meditation.

Is there anything speicific that you hope to achieve by taking the course?

Nice one, I did the Inner Engineering course a few years back and have seen so many positive improvements in my life - it’s INCREDIBLE ❤️❤️❤️❤️

You're still handsome! Inner beauty always reflects on the outer, age be damned ;)

Speaking of inner beauty, I don't usually push my posts on people, but this current one about my son is an exception: https://steemit.com/life/@dreemit/can-t-keep-this-champion-down-a-tough-break-literally-but-a-winners-attitude

Do you say that to all us devasatingly handsome seniors or is there something special about me/ LoL

Wow what great photos - always nice to look back at.

Looking back. Looking forward. Being in the here and now. All ways nice :-)

Agreed 😉

cheers-839865_1280.jpg

What a wonderfully positive post! This really cheers me up on a very dreary and full day!
Thank you ever so much for reminding us to recognize abs respect that wise elder within!

I used to dream about him many years ago, this wise old gentleman with long white hair and kind smiling face!

I think I should start doing exercises regularly to get my body in a better shape! Then, my self-confidence and self esteem will be much happier!

You have a beautiful mind and you are very handsome always!

Your inner elder has long white hair? I hope it's not because he can't afford a haircut! LoL

Are you sucking the belly in the last photo?

No. I didn't have a car so it was 100 kilometers or more on a bike every day :-)
