So, I carry this twin set of luggage. In one hand, the awareness that sometimes you don’t live to meet your grandchildren and in the other that it’s possible to live a full and robust life into your 90s.
Because of both of these woman, I see aging as an exciting gift and a privilege. At 47, I embrace the idea that I’m in the middle of my life and that I could have at least another 40-45 years ahead. And that’s not just me, as a society, we’re living longer lives.
If we start telling ourselves we’re done evolving or too old for this or that when we’re in our 40s or 50s it’s going to be a pretty miserable future or at least a boring one!
