Aging gracefully can work for anyone from any background if they practice self-discipline and avoid unnecessary risk.

There are a lot of things going on in US politics. And recently, I saw two aging politicians’ photos posted side by side by a political activist. In politics, most things are fair game.

Then, my creative mind went wild with the popular saying, “Age is not just a number.”

I am aging; however, I am inspired by my mom and other older women and men living their best lives as they are aging gracefully.

Older people can still wear their favorite clothing, excel at work, drive, and hike. But many may not run as fast as they used to a decade ago.

You decide, is age just a number for you?

Aging gracefully can work for anyone from any background if they practice self-discipline and avoid unnecessary risk.

Do you know anyone in your family or community who ages gracefully? Do you know their secrets?
