About this ebook
Getting Older and Golder: Happiness and Health in Body, Mind, and Spirit in our Senior Years is about putting spring into our autumn years by living and loving life as completely and as abundantly as possible in our journey into older age.
You will find stories and reflections on our material needs, partnership and relationships, physical and mental wellbeing, happiness and contentment, life after retirement, funerals and aloneness, productive use of precious time, keeping up our standards, staying safe and sound in the home and on the road, freshness and generosity in mind and spirit – and grandkids.
You’ll also find humor as well as nourishing thought and sustaining wisdom.
And you will recognize yourself, your family, and your friends in these pages. This is a life guide with a difference.
