i look forward to getting older (don't get me wrong i love being young) i just look forward to the wisdom and certain freedoms that come with age
Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!

That is very very true!
I look forward to the changes it brings. It's so sad that in this society, age is looked at in such a negative way.
