Too old for good

Some people says that being old is gold. Maybe I beg to differ.
But I wonder as well.

Does being old mean you are more adverse to failure rather than trying? Some say when one is young, you get adventurous and you try, not afraid of failure.

Perhaps I feel the stakes too high to try?
But time is exhausting itself, isn't it?

I wonder how long before I can reconcile everything I am thinking? Why not put in a shot down the alley and see what is the outcome.

Rather than not rolling the bowling ball down the alley and have no pins being struck? Even if it hits the gutter, at least you know and you learn.

Haha, easier said than done.
And being older as I said this.

Hmm..
