Ninety

When you’re 90 years old, what will matter most to you?
I asked someone this question once and they said: Aly, I don't want to be alive at that age!
I didn't know what to say so I awkwardly chuckled...
I don't know why you wouldn't, I think that even without a lot of the abilities we have now at a younger age we still are able to learn and experience joy and love and so many things.
At that point in my life I hope that thing that I will treasure most in my life is my family, I hope that I will have had children and grandchildren and even great grandchildren.
I hope that at that point I never would have had to bury a child or grandchild but I do hope that I live that long.
I would be a pretty awesome 90 year old.
I think so at least.
A painter, lover of rock n'roll, an enthusiastic reader and explorer.
Even if I'm not able to travel I hope that I still use my imagination and I could even be a phenomenal story teller.
And of course I will be wearing all of the jewelry I own.
And a mumu...I don't think that's how you spell it, but non the less I will be wearing one.
That or leggings and a baggy sweatshirt.
Both of which I do now...scary...
