    I am 82 years old and the first time I heard this song I was so impressed. I love Alan Jackson’s music but this one really does it for me. I really identify with it and thankful that he recorded it ❤️✝️🇺🇸

      As a 80 year old this song is relative to how all we oldies feel. Having said that hope the next 20 years are as good as the last 80.

    To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind right now. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life. Amen.💕 Hallelujah

      An all time song. Applies to every human being living on earth today. I'm a musician myself, and I'm looking at a cover song. Humble dzata is my UA-cam channel, and I have a song titled "40 years from now" which aligns with this very song; which is another reason I love it. Let's love all without prejudice. We don't have enough time to live even if it's 100 years, it'll come like a thief comes at night.
      Today, I declare my love for you even though I don't know you. Be blessed.

    I remember how I found this song. I was sat in the back of my grandads car, listening to BBC radio Lancashires country set on a Sunday from 2pm, I was so taken a back emotionally by what I was hearing that I started uncontrollably welling up and before I knew it, I was crying. I tried to hide it, but I couldn't. My grandad thought I was upset over something but I was just so touched by the song I couldn't help it. I love it more and more each time I listen to it.

      I'm on the opposite side of life, Katie Beavers. I'm 82. I discovered this song a year ago. I Cannot listen to this song, which I enjoy immensely, without tears. Most of the Lyrics of this song seem to fit my life, so well. It reminds me that I'm so Overly Blessed. Every time I listen to this song, I want to move on to his Gospel Songs but, I get stuck on this one. There Must be a way of playing it in a Loop, as I used to do with something that I really liked. As it is now, i continue to go back and hit the replay button. Katie, you need to tell your Grandad, how you feel about this song. There's a good chance that he feels the same, or similar. If it's too emotional to say the words write them down, and give them to him, when you feel like it. He should treasure your note, letter.

    Somewhere back on the road, this song got lost. Without a doubt, a top hit of Alan Jackson's. At 71; I think about my own mortality, the miracles I've experienced and the blessings I've recieved. The people along my journey and how they are slowly passing on. This song is my song. Me being thankful I guess. One of the greatest things I've been given is the ability to Forgive some and accept them as they are. That has set me free.

    I know he is never going to read this, but i wish he'd know how much of an influence he has had on my life. Alan Jackson is a true legend and truly never ever disappoints. And i sure think he is a true role model for a lot of people in this world including my self. God bless Mr Alan Jackson!

      Any time you think that there's nothing in this life just think of what it took for you to even exist. Billions of years, the perfect circumstances, everything in the universe had to align in a very specific way for you to exist and type that comment. Two specific people out of billions had to meet each other and two before them and so on. The chances of all of this happening are so slim - you're that special. Don't forget that.

    The older I get
    The more I think
    You only get a minute, better live while you’re in it'Cause it’s gone in a blink
    And the older I get
    The truer it is
    It’s the people you love, not the money and stuff
    That makes you rich
    [Chorus]
    And if they found a fountain of youth
    I wouldn’t drink a drop and that’s the truth
    Funny how it feels I’m just getting to my best years yet
    [Verse 2]
    The older I get
    The fewer friends I have
    But you don’t need a lot when the ones that you got
    Have always got your back
    And the older I get
    The better I am
    At knowing when to give
    And when to just not give a damn
    [Chorus]
    And if they found a fountain of youth
    I wouldn’t drink a drop and that’s the truth
    Funny how it feels I’m just getting to my best years yet
    The older I get[Instrumental][Bridge]And I don’t mind all the lines
    From all the times I’ve laughed and cried
    Souvenirs and little signs of the life I’ve lived
    The older I get
    The longer I pray
    I don’t know why, I guess that I Got more to say
    And the older I get
    The more thankful I feel
    For the life I’ve had, and all the life I’m living still

      @@danigracejackson1320 I have been listening to your father since the beginning of his career. His music has helped me in so many ways ,it's true country, it's got real meaning to each and every song he's ever sang. I can relate to it no matter what kind of things are going on. When he and your mom danced to Remember When, that was the most uplifting ever. It shows that true love and togetherness still exist. 💜💙💜
