Jet 02-13-2010 05:07 PM

how much I don't have in common with anyone.

Gentle Tiger 02-13-2010 05:24 PM

The older I get the more I realize:

Time is finite

I don't have to tolerate individuals who bore me, irritate me or cause me frustration

That I dislike alarm clocks (especially the biological one)

Friends are harder to make with age

and

True love, the kind that makes your knees weak and your pulse race, is rare.

bigbutchmistie 02-13-2010 06:38 PM

The older I get... The more Im realizing I love being alone. :)

*I enjoy my private time alone

*I am blessed eventhough I am very sick

*I love my animals unconditionally

The older I get the more I realize the importance of laughter. I also have a greater desire to get into mischief! LOL:superfunny::cool:

Lady Jewel 02-15-2010 01:00 AM

The older I get, I realize I dont have the patience for lies, intolerance and all around bullshit like I used to. And Ive realized that not everyone is going to like me, Im not going to like everyone, and that is OKAY.

time is precious...................and i will live every second with appreciation

I'mOneToo 02-15-2010 03:36 AM

i've learned
 
that life can change on a dime.

cognitive skills can evaporate overnight, literally

that some days, it doesn't pay to open your mouth at all

that i can rejoice in successes but don't party overly long over it - there's another one waiting just around the corner.

Jet 02-15-2010 03:29 PM

There's no sidestepping the truth if you're to have a life of any kind. There's no ignoring the past especially when it destroys you from the inside out. There's no ignoring hell if you want to keep sane. How many times did I patch it over? This is my life in suspension and honesty, no matter how frightening or brutal, is paramount to survival. My heart stops and my insides are seized....at remembering.

AtLast 02-15-2010 03:43 PM

I realize each day really is a gift and aging does beat the alternative!

:thumbsup: Gracefully aging does sound very good! And one can still have :rubberducky:'s in the bathtub!!!

The older I get I realize I'mOneToo is so spot on!

VuDu 02-15-2010 07:16 PM

That my definition of being "open minded" doesn't mean the person next to me has the same definition.

I'mOneToo 02-15-2010 10:26 PM

"that i can rejoice in successes but don't party overly long over it - there's another OBSTACLE waiting just around the corner."

I guess because my 59th birthday is a month away, my thoughts are plugged into this thread presently.

As I read through our posts, I am struck by some common themes around being comfortable with things like living alone, not needing to be in a relationship (but, possibly considering one if there is a match), not thinking that being with someone means living together, being much more connected to our own desires and values and an unwillingness to give these up for someone else. Just seems there is a commonality about self-awareness and self-love & self-respect among us. I know that although I have been fortunate in my life to have 2 positive, long-term relationships with extraordinary women, that there are many things I simply will not allow in my life at this age in terms of a relationship.

I know I am grateful for my life even when there is hardship. LOL.. and I know I am not as patient as I once was! And I sure do have to stretch before dance, too!

I certainly feel I have the capacity and personal attributes needed to sustain a relationship, but find I am not even willing to date someone that does not have my top non-negotiables. Why waste time on what I know will not work? Yes, time has become a very different concept to me at this time in my life.

Sure, I miss many things about being with someone special and as full-retirement is indeed approaches, would like to have a partner to share intimacy (in its various forms) with and travel with. I also know that I just can't do drama anymore and would be happy going it alone with my good friends in my life as well as family. Some can travel too, so what the hell!

Sex would be great, but, I have to stretch before that, too...



:onebutch: Geezuzzzzz... I can't believe you said that, Dude!

Jet 02-19-2010 06:40 PM

It isn't enough to have noble thoughts. I best have the balls to back 'em up.

T D 02-19-2010 07:10 PM


That I have very little patience for idle chit chat about nothing. In fact I'm finding that it bores and annoys me quite a bit.

When did I become this crotchity ole fart??? :|


Jet 02-20-2010 03:34 PM

how much i could care what anyone thinks. sue me, yanno?

That some people like to argue just for the sake of arguing. Arggh.

*A good leader always takes responsibility - no matter what

*To give as much as I can, whenever I can, as often as I can, and the best ways I can

*It is ok to cry, even in public if I have too

Gemme 03-07-2010 07:53 PM

Every day I realize that, even though I'm older and wiser than the day before, I'm still not smart enough.

*sigh*

Soft*Silver 03-07-2010 08:01 PM

Mrs. Strutt 03-07-2010 08:02 PM

...that while some people are vastly admiring of their own honesty, they are often less than admiring of that same honesty in others.

To use root buster on tomatoes all the time. :wateringgarden:

Soft*Silver 03-09-2010 10:28 AM

the older I get the more comfortable I am in my body as it changes, speads, sags, wrinkles, etc...lol....I LOVE the aging process and feel as though I am some great example of the goddess incarnate....

every single day until the day I die, I am going to wake up to this treasured body and make sure it is respected like it should be..by me and by any one else that I allow close to me...
