We feel aged
when we feel
cognitive fragility.
We feel still young
when we have
sound cognition.
We can distinguish
our age from
cognitive ability.
Cognitive ability is
a gift from God.
God gives it and
takes it away.
I wasn’t aware that
it was God’s gift,
as it was always there.
My cognitive ability.
I am now aware that
there is another gift from God,
that is an encounter
with those who help me.
I am grateful for
the gift of encounter,
the gift of awareness.
the gift of everything.
