The Elusive Fountain Of Youth.........by Ladymermaid
We are an a
ging population, many striving desperately to bend backwards in time, to somehow grab those last remnants of youth and stretch them forward and closer to today and tomorrow. You've seen those who think that they have found it. Surgically reintroduced people. It is in their appearance, their facial skin stretched so tight that their eyes bug out and their cheekbones look ready to burst through the thin membrane that remains to cover them, Wrinkleless expressions on stretched thin smiles. Bright sparkling eyes. Breasts that look amazing till the bra is removed and they bounce out in all their naked glory. So strange? You can't help but stare in fascination at the perfectly round appendages that look amazingly like the plasticine balls you used to form by rolling them ever so carefully in your hands. Thousands of dollars invested into cosmetic or surgical fixes to find that all magical but ever so elusive "Fountain of Youth". Like a too tight pair of blue jeans that reveals every crack and crevice, we find it erotic, but are not too sure if it is attractive or not.
A somewhat funny situation when you consider that the fountain of youth is ours for the taking. Locked within each of us, it lies, just waiting for the opportunity to emerge. It's the little kid that we long ago figured we no longer needed, so we tucked him away, until the pressures and stresses of growing up tamped him further and further into the depths of our subconscious. Now that child is trapped inside and trying desperately to get out again, but buried beyond recognition, he can't find his way back out to play.

To be young again we have only to pull this magical elixir of emotions from its hiding place and once again enjoy its sweetness. Sounds easy huh? Well sometimes it is not easy to grow up and likewise, sometimes it is not so easy to grow younger. Sometimes it takes a lot of experiences, patience and learning, for us to turn around and successfully walk backwards.
So we examine our vitality, our emotions and our ability to still enjoy the emotions of others. We look at our ability to dream and our ability to still believe in our dreams. We look at our ability to care and to show kindness. We examine why at some points we feel empathy and, why in other situations, we do not. We learn again to care, and with caring to love and respect every life that exists around us, and in learning these emotions we begin to come to life. We examine our perspectives on living and other people's perceptions of living and, somewhere amongst all of that emotion, we begin to really truly live again.
We rediscover our innocence, that magical world of intense emotions that flash from us
, like lightening from a clear blue sky. This vitality, this life force, is what makes us young. It is what others see. Whether the emotion is happiness, curiosity, mischief, or sadness, the life force that shines from us is what causes people to stop and be fascinated by us. It is what makes us truly beautiful, truly young, and it is available to each and every one of us.
The child within us is what gives us the innocence to care, to cry just because we feel like crying, to laugh like we will never laugh again, to love, to play, to feel empathy where non might otherwise exist. It allows us to feel with emotion rather than with common sense and it is buried deep within each of us. That lost little kid is the pathway to finding the elusive fountain of youth.
