It's Just A Number Poem by Dianna Nally

Why do we worry about the small things in life
Like wrinkles, laugh lines or age
Everyone is going to get older it's true
But it shouldn't send you into a rage.

Why waste your time worrying about that which you have no control
Forget about it, Life is too short
Stay active and positive about your self
Maybe get involved in some kind of outdoor sport.

Don't keep your self locked up indoors or
spend all your time in a rocking chair
Get out of the house, maybe go shopping
Buy your self something with a little flair.

It doesn't matter what you do with your day
All that matters is that you don't give up yet.
There's so much to see and do in this world
So many people you yet to have met.

So go out and find something you enjoy
And forget about your age.
Because age is just a number
In the story of your life, that number is just another page.
