Being in my eighties, I smiled when reading your article about being in your forties. I remember similar throughts when I was in my forties. For the record, being in my eighties is the easiest and happiest decade so far. Fewer responsibilities, way more freedom. A while ago it occurred to me that nobody needs me. I'm happy that my most precious people still seem to want me around. But being neither needed nor dependent felt surprisingly liberating!
Bonnie, you’re never not needed! You’re one of the people I’m so grateful to have known in my life. You’re such an inspiration and I’m so happy that you’re spreading your wisdom through your words! Thank you for sharing your thoughts about this. ❤️🙏🏼
