Life has a way of sneaking up on you. I don't really mind the part where I get more responsibility, I don't really mind paying the bills, I don't really mind having a busier, sometimes "boring" life. I think the part that is hard for me is watching everyone else around me get older too.
This last weekend I was able to have dinner and spend time with a number of family members. Among those that got together, I saw my grandparents and great aunts and uncles. As much as we have all have our faults, I love them all dearly. Over the past few months, my grandpa has been sick on and off, in the hospital, getting weak, getting better, etc. The same thing has been happening to my great aunt. My grandma isn't in the best of health either. And I can't help but feel that our time together is growing shorter and shorter. And I hate it.
I realize that's just part of life, but for me, that's the worst part about growing older.
