A great letter [I Find Ageism And Age Assumptions Very Depressing]

My wife and I received a letter in the mail today from a couple telling us that they sold their house and moved to a small apartment. No stairs to climb, no lawn to mow. "We're getting older."

They are 90 and 97.

If I make it to age 97, I sure hope I feel that I'm "getting" older!

Sounds like they made the best of their 'younger years'. Good on them!

Old age is 15 years older than we are

Lol

My boyfriend's mom moved in to assisted living now, she's 95 and still goes for walks. She just needs help with house keeping. I'll never have money to do anything like that. I don't want to live that long...80 would be good enough for me!👵
Aww bless 😍😍
