Getting older

[melodylogan45]

As I am getting older, I realize how much I miss my younger years. I just enjoyed life more, I had less stress, I was healthier, no chronic pain, other than migraines and very active.

There are some changes that I am trying to make to  make things a little better for myself.

Yes but getting older does mean you have more experience and can help younger ones figure out LIFE! I know it isn't easy getting old, but I try and look at the positives.

  Aging is not the end of world. It is just a change of life situation.
  When I was young, I did not have the knowledge I have today.
  Getting older for me is living each day better than the day before.

Doesn't everyone feel this way? lol

Now that I am older I have more health problems and more responsibilities … but I wouldn't change a thing.

Getting older is harder and there would be a couple of things that I would change but mostly I am satisfied with my life

I used to be able to play with children like I was a child.  I now I can barely get down on the floor to play with Legos.  I hate that.

When we were young we wanted to be older, now were older we want to be young. We would stay up all night, now Im in bed early, too many aches and pains, and some days I just dont want to Adult

My mother is 61 and doesn’t feel old at all. She knows how to manage stress with a meditation site (probably called “Head Space”). I myself have had a rather active membership with HAPPYneuron since 2014 and have cleared out my head to allow more room to remember and think better.

It is hard to believe that I am almost 70. Wow! I don't feel now how I pictured 70 year old to be when I was young. Big difference.  However, I am loving life right where I am.

I still think  am 25 in my head, but sometimes my body lets me know different.  But I think we need to celebrate for all of those who didn't get to live this long.

I agree, I think I can still do things like I could years ago but I find out really quickly that I can't.

It's inevitable - I live in a 55+ communit so all my friends and neighbors are experiencing the same aches and pains I am.  It helps to not be alone with growing older.  Look to the brighter side - We don't have to live all those other problems younger people have.  I wouldn't want to be raising a family with the future as it looks.
