Age
An age is but a number that normally recognizes your years of knowledge
It should never be used to measure your importance,
Significance or
Meaning
Age is a measure of seasoning,
Wealth and
Experience
We should be proud of who and what we are
With age, we come to realize where we are
Where we are not
And learn of what we can do to change whatever emptiness
Or unhappiness we are feeling
With age comes control of one’s life and the ability to do different
And new things
Like voting for our president
Getting married
Working full time
Taking a trip across country
Age of innocence and despair
We can often not change our past
But control the future
The part not controlled by fate that is
