I guess if I were to be completely honest I would say growing old sucks!!!!! Especially being alone at this time.


Guess am wondering, chatty what is triggering you to think more negatively about aging? Unlike some people your age, you are actively engaged in some paid work, improving some family relationships and you have some hobbies on the side that you enjoy. You are clearly more self-aware and taking action in various areas of your life. A good thing. smile
