Life after 60
An Interesting perspective….
A wise saying Enjoy !
“Time is like a river, you cannot touch the same water twice, because the flow that has passed will never pass again. Enjoy every moment of life.”
For those that are already 60……..start practicing.
For those who are almost 60……..get ready
For those whom 60 are a long way off…….help your parents do it.
For those who are 60 years old……focus on enjoying people, not on indulging in or accumulating material things. Plan to spend what ever you have saved, you deserve to enjoy it and the few healthy years you have left. Travel if you can afford it.
Don’t leave anything for your children or loved ones to quarrel about. By leaving something, you may even cause more trouble when are gone.
Live in the here and now, not in the yesterdays and tomorrows. It is only today that you can handle. Yesterday is gone, tomorrow may not even happen.
Enjoy your grand children (if any) but don’t be there to take care of them. Don’t have any guilt about refusing to baby sit anyone’s kids, including your own grand kids. Your parental obligation is to your children. After duties of childrearing and babysitting are finished. Let your children raise their own off-spring.
Accept physical weakness, sickness and other physical pains, it is a part of the ageing process. Enjoy whatever your health can allow.
Enjoy who you are and what you have right now, Stop working hard for what you do not have. If you don’t have then, it’s probably too late.
Enjoy your life with your spouse, children, grand children and friends. People, who truly love you, love you for yourself, not for what you have. Any one who loves you for what you have will just give you misery. And you’d probably know that by now.
Forgive and accept forgiveness. Forgive yourself and others. Enjoy peace of mind and peace of soul.
Not trying to be morbid, but befriend death. It’s a natural part of the life cycle. Don’t be afraid of it. Death is the beginning of a new and better life. So, prepare yourself not for death but for a new life with the Almighty God.
Go to places of worship and have a close relationship with God, for He is the only one who can take care of you when you die.
