Just Getting Better With Age

I was never that big on flowers.  I know most guys aren’t but after a while we all give in, mainly because of the women in our lives.  Now that I am a bit older I am starting to actually appreciate what a nice arrangement of custom flowers does to a home.

I really enjoy walking in and seeing a nice arrangement on the mantle of the fireplace.  Ditto with what a bouquet of flowers used as a table arrangement does for Sunday meals or dinner when you have someone over.  If I didn’t know any better I would swear a properly set table even makes the food taste better.  I guess as you get older your tastes, or rather how you weight certain things change.  Well as I push on towards my forties I guess you could say I am really learning how to take time to smell the roses.

The Evolution of Me

I guess I can count myself lucking for not being the kind of person that ever gets sick.  In fact, I never have had any medical problems or at least I haven’t had any in the past 20 years.  When I was a child I would get sick pretty regularly.  I had to go through the full battery of tests; ekg, respiratory and even CAT scans since I would get chronic migraines.  In fact, there were absolutely no signs that I would grow up to be as healthy and robust as I am.  This just goes to show that people do evolve over time.
