When I was younger I wasn't concentrating on good days. I was managing a career and trying to have a good year. It would always 'lead' to something which never leads to anything except death where everything leads to. And then as I got older and then I had my kids and everything I began to appreciate a great Wednesday.
When you think about it the end of the world is a little bit like death: We all know it's going to come eventually and as we get older we feel we see the signs more and more distinctly.
I don't think kids have a problem with death. It's us older ones who are nearer to it that start being frightened.
Dating is different when you get older. You're not as trusting or as eager to get back out there and expose yourself to someone.
I'm not interested in dating. I like being with my own best friend me. Certain women particularly older women cannot believe I like going to a social event by myself. But I do.
The prospect of dating someone in her twenties becomes less appealing as you get older. At some point in your fife your tolerance level goes down and you realize that with someone much younger there's nothing really to talk about.
I started dating older men and I would fall in love with them. I thought they could teach me about life.
You know the man of my dreams might walk round the corner tomorrow. I'm older and wiser and I think I'd make a great girlfriend. I live in the realm of romantic possibility.
As I get older and I get a few more years experience I become more like Dad you know King Lear.
I'd always assumed that I would die at about the same age as my dad - he was 45. I am five years in credit now. I can't get my head around the fact that I am older than he was - ever.
