*When you can't find your glasses, they're usually on top of your head?
*The delightful honesty of youth sometimes stings?
*Love still makes your heart skip a beat...or two...or three?
*Every morning you breathe a prayer of thanks for another day?
*A good sense of humor makes life so much easier?

Are you ready to trade in your wimp status for a more courageous existence? Or are you still wondering what lies ahead? Gettin' Old Ain't For Wimps affirms that life will always be filled with wonder, promise and adventure!
