"Our physical body is made of matter, and, because matter is subject to time, it wears out, decays and disintegrates. This is what we call ageing, and it’s not very pleasant when we notice the evidence – the wrinkles, the white hair, the rheumatism and so on. But we are not just a physical body, and if it’s in the natural order of things for the body to age we’re not forced to age inwardly with it! So there’s nothing much to worry about!
People who get so upset by the signs of ageing they notice in the mirror every day are generally already old inside. Instead of being concerned with maintaining what’s warm and alive inside them – their heart – they identify with their body, with matter. But it is their heart, not their body, that determines whether they are young or old, and if their heart ages it’s because they allow it to. In order not to age, you must conserve your love for people and things and never lose your curiosity or interest in the rich, abundant life that’s all around you."Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
