when you're young, you're invincible, or so it may seem. i've come to realize just how frail the human being actually is. in our younger years we get cut, bleed, and bounce back. but what we have going for us is our youth; the ability to heal quickly. in the painfully ironic "golden" years, we break, snap, and rip apart with the slightest fall or brush of an object. our old age renders our carefree attitude useless and go on living in fear of the inevitable.

yeah, this might be the start of short work of fiction..wee
