@Anomalia I am getting close to 70's. One of the issues I face is what has my life meant to me and to the world. Finding meaning in a world that is looking to glorify youth and often overlooks the wisdom that people have who have seen a few generations grow up.

These are not easily answered questions for me. I guess I just have to keep turning within to see what my heart is telling me to do. I am surprised that when I do things that "feel right" how much easier that is than trying to struggle to do things that are difficult for me to do. Often I have done things in my life that I never thought were possible because I trusted in my heart to lead me on the path that is right for me.

@Anomalia

My biggest struggle with turning 70 was getting seriously ill, spending weeks at a time in the ER and hospital and enduring months of chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, and then more months recovering from the effects of all of those things. It's not something I would care to repeat.

@Tom444 I am sorry you faced so many health challenges. That must have been rough to go through!
