Maybe an attitude adjustment needs to be made about being old.

I can remember when I was 20 how 50 seemed so old.
Now, it seems to me that 90 is old!!!
lol

I think if we fall into the mentality that life ends at 40 or 50 then our lifestyles will reflect it.

I took MA and weight lifting to get me back into the active lifestyle that I thrived on when I was younger that somehow got lost in the shuffle of day to day responsibilities and work.

I do agree. Use it or lose it is a good adage to remember.
My dilemma is finding enough time in the day to do all I want to do.

It is a shame that sleep is as important as activity.

It maybe that time makes us use only what we need.

There is so much knowledge to be had. How do you determine what you spend your time on that is considered important to know and use and what is not?

Maybe as we get older what we see as necessary is less or we just focus on the things that are needed day to day because we wise up to many of the external controls on our lives that we no longer want.
