Self-fulfilling prophecy !!! |

Gary |
I can't stop thinking that the best years of my life are behind me. I'm really
frightened of growing old. |
Owen |
Well, aging is a fact of life;
there are not two ways about it. |
Gary |
The scariest part is that I've
noticed that my memory is failing. And at the rate I'm going, I'm
going to need cosmetic surgery soon. |
Owen |
being so negative about yourself could prove to be a
self-fulfilling prophecy. Fear
and denial are detrimental to health and peace of mind. |
Gary |
I can't help it. We live in a society obsessed with youth, and aging
is portrayed so negatively in the media. |
Owen |
Liking yourself is what matters; being young doesn't hold the key to
happiness. |
Gary |
That concept is hard to swallow. |
Owen |
Well, as they say, "You're only as old as you feel". |
