For some, getting older means getting more beautiful, as our soul progesses.

 

The progress of our soul is like a perfect poem. It has an infinite idea which once realised makes all movements full of meaning and joy.

Rabindranath Tagore(gratefulness.org) Interviewing WW11 vets has helped me realize that true beauty comes from within, and it does not matter what one's gender or race happens to be!         The old soul doesn't see the purpose of pursuing things that can be easily taken away from them. Additionally, old souls have little time and interest for the short-lived things in life, as they bring little meaning or long lasting fulfillment for them.
