Childhood, life, etc...

The question was quite straightforward: 'Would you like to go back to your childhood?'
The answer took some time to be uttered: 'No'
Not that I had a bad childhood, far from that. very far. It's just that I have grown up to become the person that I am and sometimes people have so much struggle dealing with their present that they prefer to go and hide in the past. As far as I am concerned, I just don't want to do that. I have made choices, good ones & tricky  ones but as the years are going by I tend to realize that it was all worth it. I am satisfied as to where I stand in my life. 

Vimla and I had this long debate about science versus Buddhist cosmology yesterday and her arguments, I must admit, were quite convincing although there are still some questions which have been left unanswered.

My happiness scale these days? 
Well, I forgot my mobile at home before going to work today. It was only around 11 am that I came to realize it and the day went by quietly without me being bothered at all. 
I haven't logged in my FB account for about a year and sometimes I even consider deactivating it. 
I try to remain as far as possible from any crap and nonsense and every once in a while I read a Gaston Lagaf before going to sleep.

People I used to be attached to now seem to be part of another life, a fact that doesn't bother me at all. Strangely, I don't even miss them anymore.

Is love still permitted as you get older?




Question: Is love still permitted at 45 or is there an expiry date to it?
Tish is such a blessing.
I wish our story would never end but he is leaving soon and when back, next year, he won't be the same anymore.
Then again, he gave me so much. He brought me peace of heart and it's more than I would ever have wished for.
