yes I do, perhaps its the only thing that I do not like, old age makes you frail, weak and dependant, you lose friends and you become an object of sympathy, is my fear rational ? do you feal the same way ?

Actually, I don't really fear old age as it is. I've come to realize that it's a lot better than dying young. The thing that I fear though is growing old poor and alone. I'd like to be able to save up for the time I retire. I don't want to be a burden to my family. And I don't want to be alone. I want to be healthy for as long as I can.

I'm scared but I'm not afraid to face it. Its part of live. If you're young, live to the fullest.
