With a little smirk on my face, I looked at her and said, "I will act 20
if you also act 20. Because a 20-year-old doesn't date an old geezer." 

I'm not sure she got it, but she didn't like how I said it. 

But if I'm going to act like a 20-year-old, then my whole surroundings
have to be in that category. What good is it to act like your 20 when 
you don't have the energy of a 20-year-old? 

It's been a long time since I heard The Gracious Mistress of the
Parsonage ask me if I was going to act my age. I'm glad because I'm not 
a very good actor. 

I also have a hard time acting my age. How do you practice to act a
certain age so that by the time you're done practicing, you're older? 

It doesn't matter how old you are or that you have to act a certain age;
it's really living today with today's understanding. 

I was reminded what Solomon said. “The glory of young men is their
strength: and the beauty of old men is the grey head” (Proverbs 20:29). 


I never understood this until one day I looked in my mirror and saw I
had grey hair. I never thought my hair would get grey, but there it was 
and my mirror doesn't lie, so says The Gracious Mistress of the 
Parsonage.
