My grandpa is 97 years old he wore his army ww2 army uniform for memorial day he looked handsome as ever. first time he wore it in over 60 years still fit like a glove :')
Today I see myself in old pictures. A happy, smiling kid, carefree; holding up a book I had just received or else playing outside and I look back on that day and wish with all my heart that I can go back in time and warn that kid of what sort of hell they'll be forced to go through. The mysterious disease they will eventually be forced to endure, the ridicule they'll face because of it. Just warn that kid of what will be in their future. Prepare them.
Now, I'm older. I found a sort of peace in myself that I didn't know existed. I still struggle with everything and I don't doubt that this is the end of the road, I'm confident there'll be more I'll have to push myself through but I feel ready now, more in control. I'd like to grow to be old and wrinkled but look in a mirror one day, see my young self looking back at me. They might have that deadened look in their eye as if they had given up all hope in the world but I'd like to be able to smile at that reflection and tell myself "You did a great job. Just keep going a little while longer. No regrets."

This is a repost, but its from a while ago. I'm really glad things are reposted sometimes, because then i get to see them again after having forgotten about them

I understand that this is about feels for the elderly and their past lives, but I feel glad.
Why? Because this image proves once again that old people are the coolest members of society, along with being harder workers than the society we have today (for the majority of cases at least).
This image is fucking awesome, and I'm getting all the feels I can from it.
Uh, I don't have a feel pic.

I literally just woke up from a dream about one of my best friends that died in a car accident about 6 months ago. I dreamed that we were afforded an extra two years to be with him and I was so excited that I woke up crying almost.
This post doesn't directly relate, but I do sometimes look at our newer photos and for a split second try to figure out why Lee wasn't there but then it hits me almost as soon as I pondered the question.
Though the post may be sort of sad, it makes me thankful that I still have a chance to be the old man looking in the mirror looking back on his younger self. It actually makes me a little more thankful for making it this far in life.
Thanks OP
