One of the programs I often watch is called “Gold Rush” on the Discovery Channel. I watch it not so much for the actual struggle to find gold, but to watch the people. One of the groups I find quite interesting to watch has a young man of 18 as the manager. This I found quite unusual that such a young man should be running the show, but now, in this episode the young man somehow got the excavator digging machine stuck. No problem though because the grandfather saved the day. Also no problem for the grandfather being 91 years old, he just popped into the bulldozer, gave grandson instructions and pulled the huge excavation machine out. Yes, the grandpa is 91 years old. After he had successfully saved the day for his grandson, he said he is off for a nap… This blew my mind a little. 
Hope* the happy hugger 
It is all in the mind.
It really is Newsy.

Age is a number only. It’s what is in your heart and mind that gives you the label. And there’s that lovely song: Forever young…
Love that song and so true Amos.
*hugs*
Think I saw a bit of that one – at least where they tried to get the buckets out of the water.
An active body hosts an active mind and soul…
Ah, so you alo watch it ghiatjie 🙂
Your so right about the active body, mind and soul.
*hugs(
Oh heavens no! I don’t have DSTV – the family does – that’s where I catch snippits of what they’re watching.
If not for their TV being on 24/7, I would never see any TV at all!!
It’s now officially a year since i sat down in my house in front of the TV to watch a show of any kind 😉
My body belies my mental age.
I understand that twolips.
*hugs*
That is so true – and I love that picture!! (hugs)
The picture is amazing, I like it too. Got it off photobucket 🙂
*hugs*
I also love that pic. “To me, old age is always fifteen years older than I am.” ~ Bernard Baruch 😉 I hope I’ll always feel this way. 😉 Hugs xx
I love that quote ad, going to remember that one, thanks 🙂

My 77 year old mother-in-law is a riot! She also loves being ‘foonky’ – her Italianised ‘funky’!
lol, I like that Desire. My mother is around that age too, she’s still coping full swing with life.
*hugs*
So true. Lovely post hon. 🙂
*hugs*
Thank you so much Sonela 🙂
*hugs*
I LOVE the picture. Awesome picture and your post is so true. My mom always would say, “I look in the mirror and think, ‘Who is that old woman looking back at me?'” She always told me, age in just a state of mind. This from a 68 year old woman who broke her wrist sliding into home plate during a softball game with her grandchildren. LOL.
Hi fiztrainer, thanks for the visit and comment.
I must your mom was quite right about age being a state of mind.
*hugs*
The picture is wonderful and feels true to me. I am often surprised by a mirror reflection.
I also thought the picture was very good. I found it on photobucket.
Thanks you so much moutainmae 🙂
*hugs*
Excellent thought provoking post you have here-
Thank you Cynthia.

“Age is truly relative. You get some young people who truly seem to have old souls(that’s for another post though) and then you get older people who keep their minds and bodies so active it’s amazing. Age is not only just so much your body, age is also to do with your mind and soul too and how we nurture ourselves. Never judge a person by the age they look, you may be in for a huge surprise…”— This is awesome! I couldn’t agree more! 🙂

Namaste Subhan 🙂 Where are you based?
:-), I’m based in Canberra Australia. I would love to visit South Africa one day. I should’ve gone there when there was the World Cup last year, but I couldn’t. But one day I will!
The beaches here are pristine and the lands are mesmerizing. So let me know if you’re planning to visit Down Under! 🙂
Subhan Zein
South Africa is beautiful especially the Cape.
If I ever visit Down Under I will let you know 🙂
I’m sure it is. I have heard great stories about the country. And I’ll let you know too when I’m planning to go there.. 🙂
And thank you for following my blog! Have a lovely day, my friend! 🙂
Subhan Zein

How true… I’m heading for 40 in two year’s time yet I still feel 21 🙂
“Never judge a person” is such an important rule in life.
