“Even though the years go by, we never quite get used to old age. Not because we deny the passage of time, but because our spirit still refuses to give up.
The strength that sustains us does not come from the body, but from the desire that still drives us toward what we want to achieve. Old people are not those who accumulate years, but those who live on memories. Those who make nostalgia their only home, who settle in the past and extinguish tomorrow, are the ones who grow old.
As long as we continue to dream, we do not grow old. As long as we have the desire to learn, to create, to start again, youth remains present in us. We begin to grow old when the past seems more valuable to us than the future. When we stop looking forward and settle for what has already been.
We haven’t come this far to stand still. We don’t deny what we’ve experienced, but we don’t allow it to be the only thing that defines us.
We haven’t lost the conviction to keep moving forward. We refuse to look at life only through the rearview mirror.
As long as we have dreams, we have a future. And as long as we have a future, we are still young, even if the calendar says otherwise.
Prabhuji
