I love living in the past, its the only bit of pleasure I get out of life. I find that things have changed but not for the better. Everything about modern life irritates me one way or another. Peoples attitude nowadays makes me sick. I will not be controlled.
Great points. I'm 72 yo. I learn something almost every day. My father bought a lot on a lake in 1956 and built a simple cottage with his own two hands with very little help from friends. (He preferred to do it himself because when friends helped, he sometimes had to undo and redo what they did.) I now own it and like to have my grandsons come out, with their parents too. The do NOT play with their electron game things when at the lake. They actually PLAY OUTSIDE, in the water! They wear themselves out and have the best night sleep, EVER. They also come with me to my son's house and we have a game day, no electronics. We have great fun. They are at their beginnings of the teen years. I broke my hip almost 5 years go trimming trees (no, I did not fall off a ladder), but I try not to let that slow me down, but sometimes it does. Six weeks after my surgery, I was back to mowing my yard. Took me FIVE times longer, with a LOT of pain (one hour and a half instead of twenty minutes, BUT I GOT IT DONE!)
In some cultures (mostly in the west), mental deteriorations and incapacity because of advanced age are called "stupidity" - even such disabilities because of some impairment could render you be insulted like that! For heaven's sake! be respectful at least to the elderly regardless of their drawbacks!!
1. A Closed Mind: Refusing to learn or embrace new ideas 2. Blaming Others: Avoiding responsibility 3. Arrogance: Thinking you know it all 4. Lack of Empathy: Failing to understand others 5. Fear of Change: Clinging to the familiar 6. Living in the Past: Letting nostalgia hold you back
Great list! Staying open-minded, accountable, and empathetic helps us grow. Embracing change and letting go of the past can transform life for the better. 💪
Fear of change might seem natural in old age, but sometimes it’s just an excuse to avoid facing the reality that life is constantly evolving, whether we like it or not.

The fear of change may seem natural as we grow older, but sometimes it’s merely an excuse to avoid facing the reality that life is constantly evolving, whether we like it or not.
I concur. Additionally I avoid toxic people especially alcoholics because they don't listen to anybody but themselves and they're always wrong They think they know what they're doing but they don't because they are too screwed up inside They won't focus I seen it so many times and I'm a senior.
…… and money has what to do with being stupid? Proving Stupidity cannot be paid off ? A person who believes that the amount of money in one’s bank account is indicative of their level of cognitive functioning is one clear definition of stupid.
Any amount of money has absolutely NOTHING to do with intelligence. My 75 yo millionaire brother is a classic example, he says crap just like your comment here. Your comment is stupid. Paris Hilton has millions. 🙄 Case closed.
1 Not being afraid to seek love in my life. After living a life where others made sure I was unhappy, in family situations, I have chosen a different path. I have done many things in the last several years, that are outside of my comfort zone. I feel as if I have achieved a level of personal growth, that I can be proud of. Your wise words reinforce what I have done. Age is just a number. We can sit down, and sit it out, or we can engage fully, and enjoy life.
It's wonderful to hear about your personal growth and courage to seek love and happiness. Age truly is just a number, and your choice to engage fully in life is inspiring! 🌟
Humility vs modern technology: Look, ever since the early days of computers, they have been designed and built, for the designers and builders to know, and you to find out. Ever notice that computers never come with written instructions? You have to know how to search the computer itself, for help! That's where kids come in. Their strength lies in numbers, always sharing with each other what they learn. For help with technology, my go-to is with kids. If it means being humble, so be it. I was a kid, on the cutting edge of video technology, and what we'd do, was fiddle and fuss with it, and share with anyone interested with it. I know the deal, and it has never changed.
It's true, technology often requires us to learn and adapt. Embracing humility can open doors to learning from others, no matter their age. Every step forward, no matter how small, is progress.
As people get older, they become more resistant and afraid of change and how to navigate their way through it. On the other side of the coin, some technology and its not well understood intrusion into our private lives, has opened the door to new types of crimes which the elderly are particularly vulnerable to because of their trusting nature and lack of sophistication for online security strategies.
Change can be challenging, but it's also an opportunity for growth. Raising awareness about online security is crucial, especially to protect the trusting nature of our elders. Thank you for sharing this thoughtful insight! 💻✨
I trust almost nobody, ESPECIALLY any and ALL gubbermint (sp intentional) alphabet agencies! I also NEVER answer my phone, the answering machine does, so I never get caught with/by a scammer.
My sister who’s older than me didn’t want a smart phone. After several years I finally talked her into buying one and now she spends much of her time on it.
It’s good that she was willing to get out of her comfort zone by embracing some “new” (to her, anyway) technology. Hopefully she hasn’t allowed it to become the main focus of her life… 🤔
AI does not empathize with old age. Sounds like a Project 2025 warning to aging population. Lovely images, concise formatting, biased slop. Thank you for providing another "empathetic" perspective.
Old people have brain infarcts , brain damage , just like heart infarct, from lack of blood supply, over the years. Their personality and behaviour, have changed. Spare a thought for them.
Most people doesn't oppen their hearts to Jesus Christ ! No matter who they are , Christ's people are composed of persons , began adventure with Jesus , they build up a strategy even in their old age for extreme happiness with him ! A special sense is needed for to create a mutual trust and love with Jesus , who is the door to an another life in all its fullness !

@seamusburke I agree with you 💯 👏 ❤
Nostalgia can be comforting, but embracing some of the good things about modern life might bring unexpected joy. Balance can be key.

What wonderful memories and traditions you’re creating! Your resilience is admirable. Keep enjoying those lake days! 🏞️💪

I'm old and I've been called stupid. Yet those who call me stupid are not millionaires but I am. Those who call me stupid can't figure that out.
True wealth isn’t just financial but also includes self-worth and wisdom. Your success speaks for itself!

And yet, there is Trump. Can anyone honestly say that he is smart, or wise, because he has millions? Something YOU have yet to figure out.
Lucky yu and yes yur right❤

One of the signs of stupidity is to look at the computer when the image is on the backside of the lid. 🤣
A little humor can go a long way! Life is better when we can laugh at small mistakes.
😂😂😂😂
I was chuckling about that myself.

Glad you enjoyed it

Smart phones are shit. You can live a much more carefree life without them.
That’s fantastic! Sometimes a little push can lead to wonderful discoveries. It’s great your sister is now enjoying the benefits of technology. 📱💕
It’s good that she was willing to get out of her comfort zone by embracing some “new” (to her, anyway) technology. Hopefully she hasn’t allowed it to become the main focus of her life… 🤔
I would change the title from“….stupid person” to “foolish person..”
A great suggestion! "Foolish" is a softer, kinder word that conveys the message without sounding harsh.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It’s a complex topic, but every perspective helps us grow in understanding.

Aging affects us all in unique ways. Showing kindness and understanding to seniors is always a meaningful choice.

Trump is old; he is clearly defined.
Age brings clarity and strength. Being “defined” often means you know who you are and what you value-an enviable position of wisdom.
