Recently I met one of my old girlfriends( not lover ). She was quite pretty at her young age. I could recognize her very hardly. Her hair became gray. Skin was rough. The eyes which were main attraction of her face became fade. Once her eyes were dazzling. Yes she was she. But not that she. A new one. Whom I knew lost away. It is the real story of every people. From birth to death we passes many lives. A life is a chain of many lives.

It is said that female is aging faster than male. I am not sure. But from many instances of husband and wife, it is always the wife that looked older after sometime even though their age is almost the same. That was what you saw in her. Do you know what she saw in you? Did she have the same thoughts as you?

Yes generally female getting aging faster than male. It is because of organic reason. Female carry baby in their womb. They work hard more than men. This may be the cause of faster aging of women. I think she had also same thoughts about me. I'm sure she too was shocked when she saw in me.

So you too went thru many lives in your life? But I think aging is just a natural process. If we are careful and keeping a healthy lifestyle, we could be lucky enough to grow old gracefully (ie, without much changes in our shape and outlook). I am an example of 'not careful nor living healthily' enough, and so my shape is quite different from what I used to be.

How many years have passed? It is sad that us women spend so much time on becoming beautiful and then it fades quickly. I also felt as I was thinking about aging that I have changed a lot as a person within a short amount of time. I am curious what I will be like when I am an old woman!

When you get old compare your past pictures. Then you will find you are not that person. We are always changing and changing.

life does mark us as we move through it. I have never been attracted by physical good looks, I see people as colors and am aware of the energy they carry. This also changes with life, but I am glad to say with most the colors inhance as their energy changes and grows stronger. try makeing yourself more attuned to the energy body of people. Blessings

We don`t get more beautiful as we get older, bhanush, at least not in the outside. But maybe if you check your friend`s inner beauty and wisdom, you will find that there are gems that weren`t there before. Those other lives might be treasures.

Yes you are right marguicha. With aging one becomes matured. Is he or she is the same person of childhood ? I think rebirth takes place in one life.

When we feel good, we look good. But if we carry heavy burdens inside, it shows physically. Life is never easy, some people had it tough, some had it easy. Even the prettiest of women will not look good if they can't flash their smiles anymore because of their hardships. Have you spoken to her? I'm just wondering what could have happened to her.

I did not talk to her. But I realized the fate of life.

Life is this way, my friend, with the body (outside), but it always depend on ourselves to be radiant and positive (inside). Life sometimes hit hard to us, but as always, life goes on, it does not matter what happend to us, we must keep walking, in order to prepare the younger ones to live this life, sometimes cruel and sometimes good enough.

I meant to say life changes with age. A kid of today changed bodily and mentally when he or she grownup as young person. At old age he or she becomes another person.
