Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. - Mark Twain You can't help getting older, but you don't have to get old.
- George Burns The worst thing about getting old is that it's easier to put on weight than take it off. Other than that, I'm only old in appearance (late 50's), but I try to keep up with music, did move to Las Vegas and out and about at any hour of the day or night, and most of my friends are at least 15 years younger than me. You get old when you allow yourself to feel old, and don't accept new things and new ideas.
If you're lonely take a class at a university at least. Most allow auditing as non-credit. Join a club.
