At many points during our life, most of us will take a variety of supplements, medications, and pills. And naturally, as we get older, we usually have to take more. And while I don’t have any issues with swallowing pills, I still don’t enjoy them. Because I think the biggest problem is…

People have always said that I have big hands. But over the weekend, I realized that my hands have shrunk. I honestly don’t think they’re as large as they once were. I know that doctors say we shrink as we get older, but do our hands shrink too? I’m confused…
