    Thanx for sharing. Life’s rough and it only gets tougher. I work in retirement plans and speak to Silent Gen and every single one of them says “growing old ain’t for the faint of heart”. You're once around the block farther than most of us and will be able to help your Gen X brothers and sisters deal with it when we catch up to you. Hopefully we won’t arrive for a while but will appreciate your hugs and advice to help us through.

    First of all, my deepest condolences. We are GenX and sadly we are at the age where the celebrities of our youth are dying. Family members we like and our friends and the people they care about are dying. We are having to face our own mortality where once we thought we were invincible. It sucks and it sucks badly. I watch people, that use to ride Harley Davidsons, now barely be able to walk across a room. However, there is also beauty in it. I swore I would never see 18..yet here I am more than a few decades later. I use to say make memories so you have something to look back on and laugh at the stupid crap you survived. I look back now and laugh. I see a mustang and smirk and tear up a little thinking of my best friend and how excited she got every time she saw one. I am also still making memories. Getting older is mandatory, growing up ..now that's optional

    Hey, don't give in. This life is hard on everyone. Perfection is in the Eternal.
    Death is always in the cards for anyone all the time. I have continually lost people from an early age (17). Now at 58, all of my immediate family is gone. I have an Aunt(92).
    I have serious health issues, but I keep as active as I can.
    Giving in isn't an option for me. Yes the world is as topsy-turvy as i have ever seen. I treat it as a Roller Coaster. I try very hard to keep a sense of humor. Roll with the punches. Keep Faith, which more and more, I use Faith as a verb.
    I have come this far, I can't give up.
    Stay safe, please. ❤

      @@TheFrightBox Good, remember- please if things bog you down. A good hot shower can change your mood completely. And if you can drink a cold beer in the hot shower. If not beer try ibuprofen or Tylenol. It helps to change your mood. I know it sounds asinine, but it works. I can only do half a beer, and if I don't have any the Tylenol does as a a substitute.

    I know what you’re saying. I miss feeling like we had “forever” to never worry. Immortal, or so it seemed. But I’m glad we can’t push that particular reset button. Life really is a gift. But it’s also exhausting. The eternal dirt nap must happen, and somedays it doesn’t sound like the worst part of the whole scheme of things. Especially if we had to be young again but in today’s world. No gracias.

    Sadly, you are just at the beginning. Wait till you get to the the age the Boomers are. The gen Xers are where we were 20 years ago. in your 70s you become afraid you will be the last one standing. In January I lost two close friends in one week, which makes six in the last 12 months. 1/2 of my high school class of 50 is gone . You know at the very most you have less than 30 years left yourself. My advice is live your life to the fullest and enjoy all of your friends and family while they are still here.
