(38,285 posts)...that every morning when you awake you can say happily, "Wow, I'm still alive!" and appreciate how wonderful, even unexpected that is.
The next thing is that one can reflect on the privilege of doing so, of having lived long.

(6,493 posts)I have some aches and pains, but nothing unbearable. I live in a 60+ housing community, so I never have to be alone. I get help every week from an organization that does my groceries and cleans my (2 room) apartment. Of course, I have subscriptions to Hulu and Netflix. I love to read and there's a library here. I live on Social Security so that can be a challenge, but I have everything I need. I have a sweet kitty who sleeps on my lap while I watch TV. Not too shabby.

(9,100 posts)I have good news for you. Add one more to that and then you can be free to say literally anything to anyone without repercussion as long as you throw in the mix of words something like "Well I'm 70 and in all my years...........". That seems to be the magic number when people just figure you're old and crazy and they don't want to mess with you. So they just sort of nod their heads or say things like "Excuse me but I have to go now." Which is usually desirable anyway. I've been using that one for a long time now.

(32,349 posts)70, for me, was the tough one. But. really, it's a state of mind.
I was at my Dr's office today. A guy I assumed was approaching 80, by his looks alone, was checking in and stated, by his birthdate, that he is 64.
Congrats and enjoy!
