With gentle encouragement and sound advice, Poppy Smith’s helpful and reassuring ‘I’m Too Young it Be This Old’ gives you the best reasons in the world to embrace getting older and cast off the past. Without being over sentimental or painting a falsely rosy picture of later years, Poppy brings you face to face with issues about the changes that mark growing into a new phase of life.
With humour and heart she considers what’s happening to your body, your memory, your emotions, your children, your marriage, and underlines it all with the assurance that you are still you!
Each chapter draws on biblical wisdom and guidance to give you a manual of helps and hints to show you that life is changing but that can be for the better with new opportunities, new freedoms and new perspectives.
