» Joy Butler - Welcome Virginia

I welcome your new topic, Virginia. I don't know for sure at what age one officially becomes a senior but I'm either one or soon will be. And I don't see any hope of slowing down any time soon. lol So I look forward to visiting this topic often. smile BTW I love your welcome message.

In response to Welcome Virginia posted by JButler:

Thank you, Joy, and I appreciate your visit and your kind welcome. The age when one becomes eligible for Social Security and Medicare(generally 65 years)seems to be the official age. That also seems to be the accepted age when most places bestow Senior Citizen discounts. Way-to-go for your outlook on activity!

Virginia,

I'm pretty sure folks such as yourself and Hank embody the spirit necessary to enjoy life at any age. I picture you as a woman who walks with a lilt in her step--I know that's how I feel when I read your writing.

So, very pleased to have you writing here. Please make yourself comfortable.

Thank you for your warm welcome and kind words. Hank is something else. You gotta love that guy!

I read a walking magazine regularly. Once an article said "when you walk, walk lightly and not hard," but it did not tell how to do this. I thought and thought, and walked and walked,
finally concluding that it had something to do with body mechanics and a concentrative thought process or effort. It is actually possible to walk lightly. One has to pull in his stomach, hold his shoulders back and say, "I am not a horse," (Get the picture?). Seniors should walk lightly, because in doing so, it not only makes them feel younger, but helpfully, not to look like a tired old horse!

And it appears that is exactly what you are doing, V! Not only are you sharing these things, but I feel that this also inspires us younger folk (if 44 is young!!) to see by example what our seniors are telling us!! I believe this is one of the best teaching tools that one can offer to the next generationsmile It is good to have seniors that can teach and inspire us to ------>> Keep moving (zooooom).....
