Gray “Matter”

Just because the joints creak and the knees sound like popcorn in a microwave doesn't mean seniors have stopped pursuing new adventures. On the contrary, they're out there with walking sticks, GPS apps they don't fully trust, and enough snacks to survive a week - just in case the scenic trail turns into a scenic detour. Sure, the trip might

High school reunions are like time-travel parties—except everyone’s hairline has receded, and your old crush now sells insurance. It’s a magical evening where you spend hours pretending to remember people whose names you once forgot during high school *itself*. You arrive, armed with your best “Wow, you haven’t changed a bit!” lie, only to be met with someone who *definitely*

Let’s face it—getting older comes with its perks. You can say whatever you want and blame it on age. You can wear socks with sandals and somehow look wise. But one thing that’s not so fun? Loneliness. It can sneak in like that one relative who always “just stops by” but somehow eats all your cookies. Retirement sounds like a

Seniors: Live in the Present, Not the Past As we grow older, it's natural to reflect on the past—memories of youth, achievements, and the people we’ve loved. But while the past holds value, it’s the present where life truly happens. For seniors, living in the moment offers peace, purpose, and joy that memories alone can’t provide. Dwelling too much on

Let’s talk about hugs, folks. Specifically, the responsibility of seniors to wield this timeless weapon of affection. Yes, I said responsibility. When you’ve got decades of life experience under your belt, you’ve also got an arsenal of wisdom, stories, and, of course, hugs. And let’s face it—who can resist a hug from a sweet senior? Nobody, that’s who. Hugs are

The number “one” issue for seniors is financial security. Today, I want to dive into the world of senior financial planning because, let's face it, retiring in style is what we all dream of. So, I was hoping you could sit back, relax, and let me give you some thoughts to consider. Senior financial planning ensures a solid financial foundation

Have you ever heard the saying "Once in a Blue Moon" and wondered why it's so important? Well, let me spill the beans! First things first, a "Blue Moon" doesn't actually refer to the moon turning blue (although that would be pretty interesting). It actually refers to the rare occurrence of having two full moons in a single

Today, I want to talk about a deep topic - the difference between happiness and pleasure.  Now, some might think they're the same thing, but let me tell you, there's a world of difference between the two! Let's start with pleasure.  Pleasure is like that instant gratification you get from, hmm, indulging in a delicious chocolate cake  (yum!). The little

Actually most people are riders / just along for the ride.  One must be a driver and not a back seat driver !  I have watched many people spend their whole life just watching the scenery.  I am not suggesting that there is not much to see what I am saying to appreciate it one must get out and roll

Anybody can be curious.  There is no Training needed, any age minimum, and education is optional.  The great thing about curiosity is that it based on questions and not answers.  The prerequisites to being effective is one: pay attention and two: absorb.  I have a theory as to why curiosity gets a bad rap which has to do with "old"
