    if I may ask, why age 65?

    as we get older, it’s really important to accept the aging process. Everybody goes through this.

    So I am 68. what I do is live in the present moment. I don’t think about the past or the future but the now. For example, when I am at one of my adult kids homes, and I am there with my grandchildren, I am so grateful for all of them, and I make the most out of each second .

    I even did that when I was younger, and while my kids were growing up, I embraced each precious moment, and I have the best memories! That is living in the present moment, and it brings so much joy to me!

    another thing that brings me happiness is doing things for others. I volunteer my time helping those who need all types of help such as picking up groceries, helping children become better readers, driving someone to the doctors, etc. Those things bring me such purpose, and fulfillment!

    Basically, as we age, we need to feel like we have a sense of purpose. just because we are in our 60s doesnt mean that we are useless and everything is over with. Not at all!

    I go buy some rules I made up for myself.

    1. Have an attitude of gratitude. Be grateful for everything that you have in your life.
    2. help others . when you do that you are also helping yourself by creating a sense of purpose
    3. Get out there and get some exercise! Even if it’s just walking. Exercise releases serotonin in the brain which creates a calm relaxed feeling.
    4. getting some socialization. Whether it’s family or friends or taking a new class. Very important. Laughter is actually healing!
    5. my ex mother-in-law is 93 years old and still going strong! She’s completely independent and I can tell you that she always had a positive attitude and kept active! I hope this helps a little bit at least

      65 really isn’t that old. I figure I can either be enjoying my life or sitting around and feeling down about my age. I choose the former! Take care.
