If we were to achieve a state in which only love
and caring filled our minds,
and neither past nor future lay as burdens on our
shoulders,
aging would become a youthing process.
Spiritually, we should be getting younger the
older we get,
since the only purpose of time is that we learn to
more consistently relinquish
our attachment to form.
Then the body springs into perfect life, a healthy
instrument and a thing of joy.

Williamson
