I thought of this thread when I saw this video of a man doing a workout for his 106th birthday

While it is so super important to have a good attitude and to be forward looking, we also need to process things and acknowledge and understand the hardships of life. I've been watching someone's family that is so amazingly profound in their lack of emotional communication, it has made me understand that not working through things within our families and within ourselves leaves people isolated in the long run. No one wants to listen to someone whine constantly, but in the same vein, I wouldn't want someone to feel like I wouldn't support them through their pain or that I wouldn't understand if they just howled at the world every now and then for all its injustice. see now and then

I just turned 48.
I love all of these suggestions -- they are outstanding -- and I have only thing to add. As I have grown older, I have really enjoyed getting in touch with my creative side, whether through writing, sewing, knitting, painting, metalsmithing -- whatever. I find that it really enriches my life, that it calms me, and that it all feeds off the other. This has been a delightful surprise. AF Check out my blog at www.typeALC.com |
