Enjoying growing old
The other day I was watching a movie named, 'Still Mine' (True Story), and at the end I was so moved that I must recommend readers 'aged above 45' to watch the movie when they are free. These days some people say that life begins at 57 (usual retirement
age) instead of '40'. Dr Rubaiul Murshed
In fact, ask people how they feel about getting older! The society has made a taboo that old age means 'hypertension, uncontrolled diabetes, stiffening joints, poor eyesight, weak or enlarge prostate, hormonal changes, memory loss, overall weakness and lastly, 'financial stress'. Yet this is true that we can not measure ageing properly.
Well, is financial stress related to 'happiness' at this stage? Interestingly, surprising part happens after mid-life crisis (say 45-55). In this regard, a curious finding has been published a couple of years back in the highly reputed 'The Economist'. I found one of their issues that, 'conventional economics uses money as a proxy for utility, the dismal way in which the discipline talks about happiness. But some economists unconvinced that there is a direct relationship between money and well being, have decided to go to the nub of the matter and measure happiness itself ....
Now, here comes a wonderful word that is 'happiness'. And for happiness we need to look at two things, first, mental happiness and second physical happiness. Our existing setting has established a mind-set that old people are not that good in creation or new ventures.
A study by the Kauffman foundation, found that Americans aged 55-64 have launched more business than those aged 20-34 in every year since 1996. Conscientiousness also tends to rise with age and older workers have lower levels of absenteeism than younger colleagues. Time is changing. Today's senior citizens are different than those of earlier generations. Studies found that enjoyments dip in middle age and falls sharply thereafter. Sadness rises slightly in middle age and falls thereafter. Anger declines throughout life.
In reality, this is the best time to use all valuable experiences one has gathered all these precious years. Knowledge along with know-how comes from learning the hard way, but at this time, there's not that much left to learn the 'hard' way.
So, try to be proactive and get a new and novel career after 57 using your wisdom. Side by side, update yourself -get into social and political arguments (well if you enjoy!).
But certainly to be active and confident, you need to maintain your physical health. A good marriage is needed between physical and mental state. Be determined and drop the pretenses. You can sit back relaxed and smile at the "young people" still trying to amaze others with newer fashions, high tone of voices and restive lifestyle — because at last you have reached the right highway.
You need to develop your own life style. During winter! Rain! Or too hot! No problem — you need to be a little bit more cautious (physically). And if you have some extra money/accessories/clothes try to do something good and enjoy life. Prayer is a good medicine. Do good-desires of your heart — and help others to enjoy every second of it.
