Does everyone need to be reminded that we won't be young forever? The older I get, the more attractive I find older people. I might not exactly see them as "hot," but they're still attractive none the less. In fact I try to see the person they were when they were young because inside they don't feel any different. Only the packaging has changed.
There was a group of folks who were at my sister's wedding nearly 30 years ago and who were then at my sister's inlaw's 50th wedding anniversary many, many years later. I couldn't believe they were the same people because of how much they had aged. My dad's comment? "Time is cruel." He was right.
"'Live fast, die young and leave a good-looking corpse' was spoken by actor John Derek in the film Knock on Any Door, which also starred Humphrey Bogart and was directed by Nicholas Ray. Ray went on to direct James Dean, who, curiously, is widely admired for having accidentally adopted John Derek's advice."
