Aging is just part of the cycle of life. We are born, we grow and learn, we go out on our own, live our lives and then we start to age and lose some of our dependence. One day, our bodies just won't keep up, and then we slow down and then death comes.

It isn't quite as clear-cut as all that, and everyone has their own path to lead. Sometimes there is a partner, whether for life, or just a little while. Sometimes children are there to help. But eventually, age catches up to those whose time has come.

Just like the leaves...there is a beautiful burst of color before the end.

Those are my thoughts for today.
