Nature teaches us lots of things if you are observant.

Things begin to "Sag" as soon as they "grow old" :D

Just look around :P

Many people say it's ok to grow up as long as you don't grow old!, but I’ve read a better explanation, goes something like this .......

(To grow up is a choice to take responsibility for your actions and create a life for yourself. To grow old is to

give up on that life).

I have seen very 'old' people in 20's and have seen very 'young' people in 40's and above.
