Growing Old

Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years.  People grow old by deserting their ideals.  Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up wrinkles the soul.

Douglas MacArthur (1880-1964)
American general and field marshal

My oldest son, who is not a particular admirer or General Douglas MacArthur, sent this along to me.  Maybe he is trying to cheer me on as my wrinkles grow.
