I AM 67-year and 113-day old today. My next birthday will only be in November. I am just in the mood to do some arithmetic, considering there is not much else to do, being “caged” under the movement control order.
The last time I wrote something about my age was an article “I am a full-fledged senior citizen today” published on my 60th birthday in 2013.
Ironically when I started writing for a column that lasted 13 years in another newspaper, the first piece was titled “Pain of aging and fast becoming the yesterday man”. I was 48 when I wrote that article, published in January 2002.
