I'm not scared but more of sad whenever I see old people with wrinkled skin and could barely walk. Coz I know one day, I'd be like that. Hope someone would take care of me....

What's there to be scared of being old? I'm 56 and I'm fine. I'm not worried about getting older! Why worry about what you can't do anything about? To worry is something that will increase your aging rate as much as 13% you don't want that do you! On the otherhand laughter can reduce your aging rate! Too bad it can't reduce it enough to make us children again! However..Laughter is the Best Medicine!
If you're worried about death.. don't! Look what happens to the caterpillar it turns into a butterfly.. so maybe we humans turn into something after our earth life... maybe angels or demons according to what we did on earth while we are here.

yes I do sometimes. I figure I only have 20 good years left unless I have an accident or cancer. Life goes so fast! I try to stay ready to meet God just in case. My daughter and I were watching a movie about retirement home people and I said "I don't want to be them"!

I don't have a fear of getting older, but I know that when I get older so do my parents and they're closer to death than I am.

Getting old beats the alternative hands down.

I know what you mean. Unfortunately, that is the only comfort I can offer you. We all have to do it. The only alternative to that is to die young. Yours is a fear that everyone feels.
