It is only because our life is so habitually and so firmly based on mechanically understanding that we think that our life is repetitious. It is not true. Any new moment started is actually a beginning of new reborn of ourself. The process of death and reborn is happening all the time. Only the awaken one realises it. However we are so caught up with our daily activites and chores that we are not able to appreciate and realise the real new of us. We are wasting too much of our time with the mundane world.

When you were asked to look within, actually there is nothing for you to see. What it meant is to check whether the greed, anger, hatred, selfishness, pride, and doubt are still in you or not. When you have anger and hatred, you cannot love yourself. Then how can you say you have compassion and you love someone. Only when you are able to get rid of anger and hatred, then you can shower your love
to others.
When you are selfish and with pride, you are not able to share your knowledge and things with others and you would not want to read other people articles in the fb, thinking that you are already enlightened.
Hence if you keep on checking your negativities and can get rid of them, one day you will leave the world awakened in peace.
(2 cents opinion, no offence to anyone.)

( An article that was sent to me for the older ones to ponder. I am qualified for this. Quite amusing, not that spiritual.)
As I've aged, I've become kinder to myself, and less critical of myself.. I've become my own friend.
I have seen too many dear friends leave this world, too soon; before they understood the great freedom that comes with aging.
Sure, over the years, my heart has been broke

n. How can your heart not break, when you lose a loved one, or when a child suffers, or even when somebody's beloved pet gets hit by a car? But, broken hearts are what give us strength, and understanding, and compassion. A heart never broken, is pristine, and sterile, and will never know the joy of being imperfect.
I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turning gray, and to have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face. So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could turn silver.
As you get older, it is easier to be positive. You care less about what other people think. I don't question myself anymore. I've even earned the right to be wrong.
So, to answer your question, I like being old. It has set me free. I like the person I have become. I am not going to live forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what could have been, or worrying about what will be. And I shall eat dessert every single day (if I feel like it).
