The way we view ourselves in relation to the passage of time can be tricky. But aging can be fun - or at least funny.

Some of the things you will read in this book are about the quirks of people who may have already passed their Best By date and along the way discovered the tiny bit of truth in the statement "Age has its privileges."

Some stories are about people who make marvelous and wise use of their time by living deliberately and fully in the moment and how, in so doing, they manage to grow older with grace.

But most of all, this book's about how we handle the time we're given - how we choose to spend it and with whom.
