The Land Where No One is Old (Ageless Body, Timeless Mind, Chopra)

     Chopra challenges us to go on a journey where "...the rules of everyday existence do not apply."  These rules include the belief, "...that to grow old, become frail, and die is the ultimate destiny of all." He wants us to suspend these belief while we read this book and become open to a new reality, "...where youthful vigor, renewal, creativity, joy, fulfillment, and time-lessness are the common experience of everyday life, where old age, senility, infirmity, and death do not exist and are not even entertained as a possibility."
     I'm looking forward to this journey  Chopra.  Aging, getting old, and "the end" can seem scary because it is uncertain.  But isn't that what this whole life is about?  Exploring, learning, finding out new things every single day.  New challenges and lessons throughout all of life to keep it interesting.  I take your challenge, Chopra and will be open to the idea that aging is a belief that man made up.
