/fountain-of-youth.jpg)
Herodotus was the rst to write of the fountain of youth in the 5th
century B.C. and it has been the much sought-after object of
legend and mystery ever since. As we live longer, spending
proportionately more of our lives in the older years, our coveting
of youth has only grown stronger. Today, products and services
designed to restore youth (or the illusion thereof) unburden us of
billions of dollars every year, as our continuous struggle against
the onslaught of age intensies. The promise of youth is cruelly
deceptive however, and no amount of vim and vigor can release
us from the burden of aging, gracefully or otherwise. Father time
is indierent to our human strivings and despite our delusions of
invincibility; from the moment of conception death courts us all.
Perhaps borne of our frustrated angst, we now so applaud the
young, in their beautiful becoming, that we enable them to sit
back on their unrealized potential and bask in the glory of that
which they could be. Unrealized potential simply means you
