We can't stop time. Every person is aging by the second, and while some can't wait to get older, others fight it. Nowadays, it's getting more and more popular to do something against aging. It seems to be normal to have Botox injections and some skin pulled back. People don't want to become old, and try everything to stop their aging. This might be one of the reasons that the attitude towards elderly is changing as well. There are more elderly people now than there were 30 years ago, which makes being accompanied by elderly persons more common. People also don't want to be considered "old" anymore, and are therefore treated like they’re not.
My generation views aging differently, since we are exposed to it so much. Take for instance, the superfluity of anti-aging creme commercials.
Aging is normal. So, my advice is to sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride!
I agree! Let gravity do its work. Get comfortable, for Madame Nature always wins. Though, if modern medicine can turn back the clock ten years and I only have five years left...
