Hi winter4me. Getting old is the biggest challenge I have faced yet. I just do not know how to cope with it sometimes.

I find when I isolate, I am more self obsessed than when I go the senior center or the gym to do exercise classes. I do not even have to talk to anyone but I am with people. It takes me out of myself and I see that other people are aging like I am. There are many older people that are not as concerned with appearances as they are open to sharing a few moments with someone if I care to talk. If not I just exercise.
