Getting older

I recently had to renew my 10 year passport and I had to have the dreaded passport photo taken - I hated it - thought I looked old and weird!

I compared it with the photo in my old passport and wished I could go on using the old photo.

Then I remembered at the time I had hated that photo - thought I looked old and weird!

So, in 10 years time I guess I'll like my exisiting passport photo.

Which set me thinking - why do I have to wait 10 years to appreciate what I am now? OK I am getting older but I still have energy, my eye sight, my hearing .. I can still run and bike .. the physical body isn't in that bad shape ..
