And sure and now, didn't you know we had it all the time over here in Ireland, but didn't we keep it a secret to ourselves:
TÃr na nÃg - The Land of the Young.................
TÃr na nÃg is the fabled island off the west coast of Ireland "The land of perpetual youth" where the Tuatha de Danann (the Sidhe) resided. It also was home to a few mortals who were carried there by the Sidhe such as the Celtic hero OisÃn who loved the ban-sidhe (fairy woman) Niamh and lived on the island for what he perceived to be a year. Time on TÃr na nÃg seemed to pass at a different rate to time on earth. Hence when OisÃn returned to his homeland to visit his family and friends he discovered that they were all long dead and three hundred years had passed by.
Other names for TÃr na nÃg are Oilean na mBeo - the Island of the Living, TÃr na mBuadha - the land of Virtues, Hy na Beatha - the island of Life, TÃr na mBeo - the land of the Living and Hy Brasail - Brasil's Island, The Land of Promise, and the Land of Youth. Also known as the Land Over Sea, and the Land Under-Wave.
Time stopped still on TÃr na nÃg, one never grew old or suffered from any illness, it was always of a temperate climate neither too hot nor too cold. The flowers bloomed perpetually and never died. There was no sorrow or pain, love was eternal it was without wars or famine or any of the ills of the earth.
To get to TÃr na nÃg it was necessary to cross a stretch of water and then to go under the waves for a time before coming again to dry land. The 'horses' of the sidhe crossed the waves as if they were a solid surface.
People have been fascinated by the legend of TÃr na nÃg for countless generations. During the twelfth century Giraldus Cambrensis tells the story of how an island appeared suddenly off the west coast of Ireland but when people tried to approach and land it immediately vanished. A group of people went out again in search of the island and having steered within bowshot of it struck the island with a red-hot arrow in consequence the island immediately remained stationary.
It has long been the subject of poetry and bardic literature. In 1853 the Ossianic Society was founded by Mr. Hardiman and Mr. O' Flanagan and others to preserve and collect all literature and poems regarding the legendary heroes Fionn mac Cumhaill, OisÃn and Oscar and the land of TÃr na nÃg.
(If you like the story, do a Google on Fionn Mac Cumhaill and you will be taken into a wonderful world of magic, storytelling which even todays children will thoroughly enjoy)..........

Sure--do what you love, and keep a sense of humor about yourself and life. You may still get a few wrinkles, but there's a lot more to staying young than what you look like.
