Where did time go (60)? Where’d that wrinkle come from?

[Anonymous]

Can’t believe it sometimes, it feels like yesterday I turned 50. I was dumbfounded then. Every now and then a new wrinkle shows up. I take care of my skin but boom there it is. It is all downhill from there right? How do you deal?

Being grateful for what still works and looks good.

NP. Just curious. How old are you?

If you don’t have cancer or an unhappy marriage, consider yourself fortunate.

Your concerns sound so superficial.

Buckle up because old age holds alot worse than wrinkles!

A lot happens quickly at 70. Enjoy 60.
Decide on a strategy for your hair. Keep dying it? You need it lighter as your face gets older. Let it go gray? Or bleach it silver? I wish I had done that.

Grateful my workday goes by fast but the week going by so fast spooks me - 50 to age 60 went by so fast, I’m not looking forward to 70. Wrinkle coming in fast now, thank goodness for hair dye.

For every skin tone? I’ve been debating this.

I’m almost 64 and I completely agree. What really matters is the quality of your life, which is hugely impacted by health, relationships and fulfilling activities. Wrinkles are insignificant.

The title of my story would be "Whose Thigh is That?" I am 62.

I discovered a congenital defect in my heart in my 60’s. One could say my health took a turn for the worse but I don’t look at it that way. I am currently 69 and have big plans to watch my grandkids grow. I just adore them and they keep me young.
Someone mentioned that things start falling apart when you reach age 70. I have heard this too. Age has a lot to do with mindset and I plan on keeping mine positive.
But, dear God, please spare me any more health surprises.

My friend died at 56 and won't see her daughter graduate HS, go to college, etc. Getting old is challenging but there are worse things.

Once you hit 70 things just really begin to ache. 60 was easy! However, my husband and I are both basically healthy, our marriage is great and our sex life is still very active so I really can’t complain. I know so many people who have lost a spouse or have major health problems and that is a good reminder that we are blessed.
