The Marathon Of Life

Somerset Life

March 2018

This month our contributor ponders the process of getting older

Your age might be just a number, but I am reaching that time in my life when although it might be so, I seem to be counting those numbers far more quickly than I would like!

I remember many moons ago when my sage of a father-in-law told me that as you get older, time seems to go by faster and I thought he was bonkers. A bright eyed and bushy tailed 22-year old, I was starting out on my adult life with his daughter on my arm thinking that everything happened at a pedestrian pace; people worked so slowly and everything seemed to take an eternity to happen – I was in a hurry!
