Greetings, I’m Merlin the Wizard
Been called a Mentor, Sage, Healer, Bard,
Wildman, Druid, Dragon Tamer, Lover and Jokester
Born in the 5th century
After the Romans left what we now call
England, Wales and Scotland
That makes me 1,500 years old, give or take
Hey, I look pretty good for my age
Those aren’t wrinkles, but wisdom lines
Except for my white hair, I can pass for 300
Ever wonder how a Wizard makes Magic?
By mastered the art of creating illusions
With spells, potions and shapeshifting
But our real purpose is finding deeper truths
One of which has been my priority:
Living to an awesome age with full vitality
What’s the secret of my 1,500-year life?
It’s eating peanut butter and jelly daily – just kidding
Of course, it’s my style of Wizardly Magic
Which I’ve dubbed Adventurous Aging
You can live your senior life as a series of adventures –
exciting, novel, daring, learning, meaningful and fulfilling
Actively engage your Life Force
Avoid getting into a rut, feeling bored,
slowing down, sliding downwards, and, ucky, being old
Stay flexible and open
Keep your creative juices flowing
Live from your accumulated wisdom
Be of valuable service to others
Heartful new activities will renew you
Rejuvenating your body, mind and spirit
Then, like me at 1,500 years, age won’t matter
We are ageless – repeat it several times to install it in your brain
Age doesn’t matter – it’s only a number and illusion
Marked by outdated cultural stereotypes and biases
Limiting your vision of life’s potential and possibilities
It’s your thoughts and feelings that run your life
Your mindset, lifestyle, wisdom and superpowers
A high quality of life adds a larger quantity of years
With wellness, passion, purpose, people, fulfillment and peace
I invite you to embrace my Magical Attitude
To transform how you view aging and live life fully
Your Heart tells you the Truth
It’s the Mirror that Lies to you
