TNCR: “It’s very simple. As you grow, you learn more. If you stayed as ignorant as you were at twenty-two, you'd always be twenty-two. Aging is not just decay, you know. It's growth. It's more than the negative that you're going to die, it's the positive that you understand you're going to die, and that you live a better life because of it.” KR: Ageing gracefully is that. Adi shankara calls it in sanskrit as Vivekam as one grows. Death is certain; no one will ever remember you including your wife. In spite of so many troubles in living with a wife quoted by Morrie still going along sailing changing the windshield directions according to the needs would increase the love and affection of a married couple. Friends do fight ; fight with ego; and later forget their ego; so too the couple. So trouble shall brew only when they do not know who shall give up. Skirmish termed as OODAL in Tamil increases the sanguine relationship which many couples as aviveki forgets. Detachment from emotions is advocated by our scriptures including the B G; but as long as the heart is there emotions cannot be stoic but can be mitigated. I like always the poem of Robert frost:The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep, And miles to go before I sleep, And miles to go before I sleep. K Rajaram IRS 29224
