Aging is a tricky business and can trip us up in unexpected ways. Hope for the best and be prepared for the worst. At age 75, I do what experts suggest to age well: Don't smoke, exercise, avoid isolation, eat healthy, get good sleep, manage stress and keep a positive mental outlook. Easy to write, hard to do. I accept aging as it has come to me, physically and mentally. New realities, most of them limitations, occur on a regular basis. The love between my wife and me has grown stronger as we have aged together. And in old age I find that if I am able to face the music, sometimes I can dance to it.

I too loved your words. You are a wise man💕
I lost my husband of 54 years 2 years ago. Man oh man. My mind is in overdrive and at a full stop everyday.
And I too fell in love again with my husband the last 5 years or so. It was heavenly. I miss him so Just to wink at him!
I am reading all replies on aging well because I turned 80 this year. Starting to come to terms with it now. Praise the lord and can’t wait to see both of them.
