He's wrong!
You are right! I have a friend who is 75 who is still dating (mostly younger men), still working as a peer counselor, still traveling, changing her house, etc. About a year ago she took in a mother and two children who were with an abusive man. A few years ago she did a vision quest in the desert.

Another friend who is 90 is fighting to stay active, even tho her mind is starting to fracture a bit. She's a hoot. She was a writer in World War II, lived in Mexico, part of the National Writer's Union and we all go sit at her feet to listen.

I like your dreams! Why can't they be reality? Who says reality needs to be dismal and depressing?!!

DO NOT go gently into the night! I'm not planning on it and we are about the same age!
