Older and hopefully wiser

I can remember when I was 9 and my Mom was 30. I thought she was way over the hill - she was more than 3 times as old as me. Isn't it interesting how the math works: My Mom will always be 21 years older than me. At birth - she was 21 times as old as me, at 5 - she was 5+ times as old, at 10 - she was 3+ as old, at 20 - she was 2+ times as old, and now the correlation is back to 21 years older than me. I'm older today, hopefully a little wiser, but not old. Today is my birthday and I'm 59 (never been afraid to tell how old I am). To some some that may seem old, but to me it's only a number. In my head, I'm about 28-32. Age is just a state of mind - my state isn't always good, but it is always young.
