I’m 73 and the last of my 5 long time school friends. When I see a cool car I want to get on the phone and tell them what I saw, except there’s no one left. It makes me terribly sad at those moments. I’m lucky to still have my wife and my 2 kids. I try to walk every day and put around my yard.
You can tell me about those cars, because I miss them also, my 68 Chevelle SS 396, My 71 Nova, my 68 Coronet 383, there all dreams of the past, I guess I kinda got old, and this younger bunch, well they just do not have interest in these things.
I hear you guys!! I'm there too! I can't list em all but I had 2 Vettes, 2 Camero's, 3 Chevelles and more! I can't bang gears like I used to!! But it's good memories!
When my friends and I get together and tell OUR stories people think we are the biggest bunch of liars they ever heard. The don't realize that we can only tell certain stories because we aren't sure about the statute of limitations on some of our stories. THANK. GOD FOR FRIENDS AND MEMORIES!
I'm 75, and all my school friends back in the day are all gone also. Sure, Glade. I was born when I was. I remember the 66 GTO , 69 Mustang , and especially the 57 Chevy, which I owned. I sure miss the Saturday nights of cruises around town with Wolf Man Jack keeping our radio hopping. Yes, sir, those were the good old days . me smile.
I just turned 60. It is the first birthday to ever cause me any grief. I just don't know how I got here so fast! However, I am healthy and my family is healthy. I am very blessed by God.
When I turned 60 it didn't bother me that much. But I will be turning 70 in a few months and there is no sugar coating that age. Ha. Actually I feel like I'm 40 so I'm very fortunate.
As get on in years I keep rememberi more and more about when I left home for the army. When I came home after serving my country I thought I could just pick up where I left off. Nope, as they say it felt as if I was a guest in the home I grew up in. As they say you can never really go home again. I drive by that address now over 45 years later it is a empty lot my step mom and my dad are gone now and even my little brother passed away a few years ago. Nothing stays the same but we have to carry on and hang on to those great memories. God bless us all. And God bless America.
Thank you for your service and sacrifices. Memories are what gets us through tough times, I think. I find comfort in knowing that at the times I find myself struggling with problems, chnges loniness etc. I can reflect back on time where one moment, one hour or one day made all the diffrence in the world. Prey for our great nation, we've done what we could now it's time to let the young ones fight the good battles to keep what you and others have fought and died for. Thanks you for your support and comment!
Get a dog 🐶 I have talk to them and they’re my best friends I have three and they give me much joy I will always have my four legged friends 😊if an when I pass away someone will always care for them I have told them things that I have never told anyone it’s amazing 🦮
Thank You Jesus for allowing me to have a complete life. Being young, middle-aged, and now bent and trembling. But most thankful to have been saved by your gospel: that You died, was buried, and rose again the third day according to the scriptures [1 Cor 15:1-4 KJV]
George Burns said, "You can't help getting older but, you don't have to get old." Stay young at heart. Never surrender! "Do not go gentle into that good night." - Dylan Thomas.
I just turned 67 in January this yr. We’re did my 40’s and 50’s go? Life goes by so fast! I’ve had a wonderful and loving life!. It’s hell to get old as my dad said one when he fell in the kitchen! God rest his soul and my wonder, beautiful mother passed a few yrs. ago. Last year lost my wonderful brother from a blood vessel in heart bust and traveled to his brain. It will be a yr. ago March 3rd 2023. It hit him so fast ! Lost my sweet heart in 2004 from a heart attack at home. He was 47. We were high school sweethearts and got married at age 22 with two beautiful grown girls. Married with one child each. One granddaughter and a grandson. It’s been 19 yrs since he passed and I still cry 😭 and miss him every day. He was in the army!! My first and last love of my life. We were the same age started going together at age 16. Married at age 22!! I’m gonna meet my Lord and all my family and friends some day!!😂💖💕
I'm the last of my childhood family. Parents gone a long time ago. All three siblings gone. Here I am @72, last born, last living. It's painful to know that there is no one left that knew me when. God has His reasons and will let me know when the time is right.
67 here... so true... My mom just passed a few months ago. In those last days she kept saying... "it went by so fast". And it just keeps going faster... it's Thursday morning... seems like it was just last Sunday....
Sorry for your lose. It starts with missing day, then weeks and now for me years. It's however that most of all I can remember are the fond memories. You tend to forget the rest. Thank you for spending sometime with me.
I am 79 years old and still active. One very good way to not be old is to look for ways to help others - volunteer your time and skills - to make you feel useful. Habitate for Humanity can always use another pair of hands and a smiling face.
Amen brother. I am 70, and still got a weld shop, repair farm equipment, and work on old cemeteries. Make footstones for old graves, and help anyone that asks. Grow a big garden, can the vegetables and give them to my older neighbors. In my mind I and still 30 years old. Take no med, got no health issues, mind is still sharp. I thank God for the opportunity to do this. I believe that as long as I do this, the father will let me stay for awhile.
I am 73; in 2022 I hiked 1,830 miles from Alabama to New Hampshire and in 2023 I paddled a kayak 2,900 miles from Great Falls Montana to Natchez Mississippi… and 300 miles on the Coosa/Alabama Rivers… and managed 200 miles on the Florida Trail - gf injured her foot, so we headed home. AND right now I am get gear together to hike to Maine.
Just turned 69 last week. I thank the Lord every morning for the blessing of another day and the blessing of health. Helps to stay active volunteering and puttering around in a little garden. I agree with the friend at my 50th high school reunion last year when he asked "why'd everyone send their parents?" Seems like yesterday that we were teenagers.
I'm 65...and I honestly don't recognize this country. I can't imagine how disappointed and saddened those a generation ahead of me feel. Our political leaders have abandoned us for reasons ranging from selfishness to ignorance. We are in trouble.
I couldn't agree with you more. Sad we are the last generation that will ever know what "Freedom" really meant. What a great era we grew up in and it will never be the same again.
I’m rounding 3rd. And heading for home in this life🙃! Be 65 in April, I’ve come to realize my days are less than more, and just yesterday I was only 21🥹! Father Time is still undefeated🙏😎!
65 here. Get up tomorrow with a purpose. Start small. It makes all the difference in the world. Especially if it serves others. Do it and start living again.
I saw CSNY in Detroit in 69..... I never expected to see thirty much less live to 72. Im a bit rusty, coverded in dust i tend a huge garden, care for for pets. Mom and Dad have passed on and now im the one the kids come to when they need a shoulder. I wish I'd listened to dad when he showed how much he loved us all. Getting old doesn't take away tha lost feeling i sometimes get. Im gonna take a listen to ole Johhny Prine sing his version of Clay Pigeons. Theres a bit of peace in the music .
Running up on 76. This song made me spin my head around to look back in my younger years. I’m wondering how fast they went. Couldn’t wait to be a teen, then couldn’t wait till I could hit those twenties. After that time was on the fast track. Looking back, where did the time go. Song pulls on my heart strings. Surely will be missed. Thank you for a beautiful and little sad song at the same brought a smile on my wrinkly ol face looking back.
There are days I am so afraid. and Days when I feel like a puppy. I know you have many years on me and I use you for inspiration. YOU have touched so many lives, but I feel truly blessed to have you in my life. YOU have a place in my heart and soul forever.
I walk into my wife and mine doctors office,we are both 75, sat next to her in 4 th grade,been married 57 years! I ask the nurse,what the hell are all these old people doing here!She just gives me a look!Sam Adams Boston lager,Pilsner Urquell Czech beer,and a shot of,Old Grand Dad,Bonded,100 proof rye whiskey,will keep you young,or not give a HOOT!Thomas A.Filipiak
This sounds like someone is holding a CB radio mike up to an FM radio playing this song across the airwaves. Regardless though, this has become my favorite song that's not gospel for this year of 2024.
65 here , still have a good life , no complaints considering the earlier years were a bit shitty. If you have your health and it’s relatively good that means a lot. Folks are gone and many friends gone but hey, God Bless them there’s some little children suffering right. Keep on truckin 👍
Man or women, were all on the same boat, should I say the ones lucky enough to grow old. Struggles are real, wisdom was earned, now we just try and get by. Thanks for watching.
In many ways this song touches me. But, I'm not even close to the end of my life. Come back to see me in 20 more years and we'll play this song and discuss it then. I was touched. ❤😊
At this age I’m the only one left alive in the family. I have a loving wife and 3 children who are great adults. All of which I am eternally grateful for. Yet there are times, not too often, I want to call up my Dad just to talk. Call my Mom to ask about her cinnamon roll recipe or just to say hi. Those moments are long past. Two of the professions I once worked at have been made obsolete because of technological advances. Although I will say that my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the one constant sustaining factor that makes life this side of heaven bearable.
This song is depressing. I'm 65 and can't wait to catch crappie and catfish in the spring. And making a plan on a big whitetail in the fall with a bow. All my past came with sunrises in the morning. Stop whining and find a way to catch a fish.

Folks, don't leave this world without Jesus in your heart. Whether you're young or old; we're not promised another tomorrow. Be ready
Same message here. For the last couple of years. Get ready
Amen
Amen. There is only one way to heaven . Jesus Christ .
Life is like a roll of toilet paper, the closer you get to the end the faster it goes

However, I am healthy and my family is healthy. I am very blessed by God.

Having your health and spending time with family and friends that care makes you not only blessed but wealthy as well... Thanks for stopping in.

I never served but I have nothing but respect for everyone who has.

Amen. Life’s earthly journey is memorable for many reasons, some joyous, some not so much. But eternity promises no more sorrow. Thank you Jesus
Thank you!
Nobody rises from the dead another made up book
I remember flying high, wish I could turn back time
I'm 58 and looking back at my childhood it seems like yesterday. Mom Dad I hope I've made you proud. Love and miss you.
That’s cute. I’m 36 and I just want a happy life
I’m 58 as well and miss my mom and dad everyday. And childhood does seem like it was just a few days ago
It sneaks up on you. You dont see it coming, but you wake up one morning and know it has arrived!
Crazy, but here we are... Thanks for spending a few minutes with me.
Ain't it the truth?!
Amen
This is such a true song!!! My body is getting old but my mind is still young!!!!
That's how I feel, My body quickly reminds me I'm not 20 anymore. Thanks for watching
Old is when you get something in your mind you would like to do and your body says, sit your old ass down because we aren’t doing shit.
Boy oh boy I hear ya
Your mind does that, not the world.
I just told someone that the other day. 60+ years ago.
George Burns said, "You can't help getting older but, you don't have to get old." Stay young at heart. Never surrender! "Do not go gentle into that good night." - Dylan Thomas.
LOL, agreed... I'm still inmature as ever, and my life has always been "Game On"...... Hope everyone enjoys what we each have left!
I'm 75 young and planning on my 100th birthday!😊❤
Happy 100th Birthday my friend, I won't be here but enjoy!!@@skc137

Brother, you were blessed to keep your Mom most of your life. Nobody is ready to lose Mom. Hang tough, the younger ones are learning from you.
I am 79 years old and still active. One very good way to not be old is to look for ways to help others - volunteer your time and skills - to make you feel useful. Habitate for Humanity can always use another pair of hands and a smiling face.

I know I can’t stop getting old. I just pray to God as I get older that I get to enjoy those good old memories.
Right and there are many for me, and I plan on making a few more. :) Thank you for stopping by!
I understand old. I’m 70 and feel every bit of those 70 years. Great voice! Great song! Enjoyed it a lot 👩🏻🏫👏🏻🥰‼️
Damn that song hits like a 20lb hammer!

Ya when did I get old great song and yes I'm wondering the same thing!
Goes by quicker every day.. No more time left to put things off until tomorrow. Stay well my friend.
I'll be 65 in June, the time flies by quickly
Yup i got more summers behind me than in front of me.
I would like to think there are a few more dances left and to meet a few more ladies I ain't kissed ...yet! lol
I love the way this song has a lot to say
Think I want this played at my funeral brings tears to my eyes cause I’m living it right now
Hang in there, it's not easy sometimes but we are have a purpose that we may never become aware of.
i am 69 years old and am aging but that's all. it also helps to avoid looking in a mirror as much as possible.
I saw CSNY in Detroit in 69.....
I never expected to see thirty much less live to 72.
Im a bit rusty, coverded in dust i tend a huge garden, care for for pets.
Mom and Dad have passed on and now im the one the kids come to when they need a shoulder. I wish I'd listened to dad when he showed how much he loved us all. Getting old doesn't take away tha lost feeling i sometimes get.
Im gonna take a listen to ole Johhny Prine sing his version of Clay Pigeons. Theres a bit of peace in the music .

The fact that, inside, I’ve always been me; gives me hope that our soul lives on after our body is done.
Focus therefore not on those things seen, but on those things unseen. For those things seen are temporary while those things unseen are eternal.

I have to agree, not sure what happened to the sound... Thanks for bering through it, the messages is clear.
So many think they can add years to your life, how about adding life to your years, that you can do.
65 here , still have a good life , no complaints considering the earlier years were a bit shitty. If you have your health and it’s relatively good that means a lot. Folks are gone and many friends gone but hey, God Bless them there’s some little children suffering right. Keep on truckin 👍
One only feels this if regrets burden the soul. We can’t fix the world. Or stop what’s coming. But we can prepare. John 3:16

Thank you for the help

It comes fast. I'm 75 now. It happened when my Son got Married. They had a baby girl. Now, I'm a Grandpa. It comes very fast.

Men don’t grow up we just grow old
I got old all at once on Oct. 31,2010 a few minutes after 2am from a lightning strike
Youth is fleeting, but immaturity can last forever. You may have to grow old, but you don’t have to grow up.
Had a pretty young girl open a door for me the other day. The old saying pretty young girls make an old man cry punched me right in the face
Great song! It surely does resonate with me.. 😊
Love this song❤
Wow man, great song and really cool video!
Thank you my friend, glad you enjoyed it as it struck home to me.
Damn good song!
It grabbed me when I first heard it as well. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful song n true
Awesome!
Just don't let the old man in .........
I'm with you, brother. It snuck up on me, too. Lol
Wow, .........right to the chest!
Nice god bless

For me it was when I hit 55-58 that’s when my body started feeling old and get weak 🤔
Liked it a lot
And I thought it was just me...
I miss you
Exactly
My theme song!
Just because I been around long enough to grow old don't mean I got to grow up.

Hi Santa
At this age I’m the only one left alive in the family. I have a loving wife and 3 children who are great adults. All of which I am eternally grateful for. Yet there are times, not too often, I want to call up my Dad just to talk. Call my Mom to ask about her cinnamon roll recipe or just to say hi. Those moments are long past. Two of the professions I once worked at have been made obsolete because of technological advances.
Although I will say that my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ is the one constant sustaining factor that makes life this side of heaven bearable.
Hey ! who you calling old? I forgot how old I am great LOL, video Old coyote from Alberta new friend here
This song is depressing. I'm 65 and can't wait to catch crappie and catfish in the spring. And making a plan on a big whitetail in the fall with a bow. All my past came with sunrises in the morning. Stop whining and find a way to catch a fish.

Getting old aint
It's not healthy to wallow in self pity, and it just makes you look like a wuss to those who need you to stand strong.
Stop smoking and drinking, and get some exercise. You'll feel better. And to be honest, you were never the man you thought you were.
How do you know, are you one of those know it alls
