as a physician I could not agree more. Very well said. There is a quote, 'Old age itself is a disease...'

chicken and egg

but how many times have you heard that "old people can't change their ways or learn new things....."

I would go as far as saying that blaming age is a cause of decline, not only a rationalization. Self fulfilling prophecy.

the day my uncle started having severe back pain is after a lady offered to give him her place on the bus explaining he looked old.

There's a saying, its not totally true but useful: 'You don't stop playing because you get old. You get old, because you stop playing'

it's a mindset, not age thing. CG Jung: Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.

Ouch.

a timely & thoughtful tweet. It's amazing to me that people do the same things over & over and expect different result #newhabits
