Dear Madame Joy
Last week my boyfriend and I attended a party. It was a banging party and we had a great time, however I noticed that the majority of people attending this part were what I like to call “old people”. Now I have nothing against “old people” but I do sometimes wonder why they don’t just stay home and rest.
Upon further reflection, I realized that I was basically in the same age group as many of these “old people”. Now this completely shocked me because I never considered myself to be one of “them”. Madame Joy how do accept the fact that I am no longer 18 and that I am indeed one of those “old people”.
Age ain’t nothing but a number
Dear Age ain’t nothing but a number,
Thank you!
Simple math will help you to achieve that serenity which you seek. Start by taking the blasted year you were born subtracting it from the current year and if you get anything over 18, guess what? You aint’ 18 no more! Pointe finale! Get over it and move on!
“Banging party”? who even says that anymore?
If that is not clear enough for you, check how many aches and pains you have on a daily basis. I bet that leg ain’t going over that head no more! Wanna feel young? Just hang out with a bunch of young folks but for God’s sakes, don’t act like them and don’t dress like them. It is just not becoming for someone of your age.
Follow these simple steps and you will attain happiness and clarity.
ps: Seriously a sad face? Wow! You need to get out of that river called “The Nile”, it will kill you!
