I remember growing up and the fear of getting old makes me feel so bad. I imagine the fact that I was going to be called mama(lol), I imagine me asking my children and grandchildren to help me out with some chores. But with time I realized that growing old is a blessing from God.

Being old is an opportunity so don't ever get scared or imagine how your old age will look like. Plan to make it the best phase of your life. Your children and grandchildren or great grandchildren should be glad they have you as their granny.
Yes, some aging is always wonderful because you see different characters from your granny like nagging, forgetfulness, fighting, not hygienic etc. But it all depends on the individual. So never get discouraged when you see things like that. Enjoy!
