I want to grow old

I heard recently that my friends little sister got engaged and he proposed by singing to her the song affectionately known as "I want to grow old with you" from the "Wedding Singer". I love this thought. What a gift to be able to grow old together, to spend the rest of your life with your favourite friend. I still smile inside when my dad says that he loves mum more today than he did 35 years ago and don't we all like to see that elderly couple walking through the isle of Aldi holding hands. It helps us remember that even though we're living in an age where youth and looking young is supreme some things really do get better with age.
