Regarding age, I think it’s best to just forget your birth year and do what your body and mind are capable of doing, and want to do. It’s hard to accept one’s age when the mind is not agreeing with the actual fact (that is if mirror evidence is ignored). Personally my mind is sure I’m only about 23 though my body belies that fact by definitely showing many signs of 86 years of wear and tear. (There, I’ve admitted to it!). I saw an elderly woman the other day walking along quite slowly, using a walking frame. I said to my friend ‘look at that poor old dear’. My friend looked at me and laughed…..enough said!
