The Seniors Life Is The Reward For Experience!
Are you really enjoying your life as a senior? You should, you earned it! It's your reward for years of living experience.
Think of all the time you actually invested in living.
Remember when you were a child and the wonderment that life was as it stretched out for an eternity before you?
Can you think of the name of your first puppy or kitten? Remember your inaugural coming of age entrance day at school and how scared you were.
Do you recall the time the neighbor kid called you a nasty word and you ran home to tell your mom.
She wrapped her arms around you and assured you the neighbor kid was wrong and didn't know what he was talking about. Do you remember how protected you felt?
Who qualifies to be a senior? The general consensus is that anyone reaching fifty years of age, transitions from middle age to membership in that very unique group! Let this be the definition then.
Mark Twain once wrote that: "Youth is wasted on the young."
I hope you don't wholly subscribe to his words if you're a senior
Being young is an emotional adventure, it's a time fraught with fears and doubts, and overshadowed by inexperience and
hormones. But, when you acquire fifty years or more of living
under your belt...the landscape changes!
What follows are called the "Golden Years" and for good reason they can be...
This web site is dedicated to all seniors! It is compiled by all of us that are full fledged members of that group! Just like our lives, this site will be under constant research and revision.
Its purpose is to define and explore the answers to many of the questions that barrage the minds of all seniors. In the days
ahead, numerous pages will be added as the story expands and matures!
We'll cover all of seniorhood, if I may coin that word, in additional web pages in the coming months. As events alter the existing status quo, more material will be added and we'll discuss and explain them.
We'll focus on seniors and how the world surrounding us affects our lives.
Check back often as time passes and the site grows. We live in an ever changing world! Not all coming events will be to the betterment of seniors. So let's learn about the changes together, and how we can use them to our advantage!
As we trudge along the path seeking answers, let's make it our
goal to add a postscript to Mark Twain's words above...our
statement will read: "The Seniors Life can be, and should be, the Golden Reward for experience!"
