Interesting read. From my perspective, as a 65 year old who made a big move 4 years ago, life is grand. I’m surrounded by older people, but these are the most active, social, engaged, purposeful people I’ve ever met. I don’t feel old when I’m in my 55+ neighborhood. I feel young, giddy, silly.....as we all gather around our various activities. I did recently feel old for two weeks. I went to Europe and saw all of the cute clothes and lovely young bodies that can wear them. I remember those days. I couldn’t have been happier to return home to wrinkles, paunches, and stretchy athletic wear. I hike, play pickleball, volunteer, host dinners, dance regularly, attend cultural events. You’re as young as you allow yourself to be.
