Ageism? A real matter of concern for everyone

[Averagebloke]

An old couple is ready to go to sleep. The old man lies on the bed but the old woman lies down on the floor. The old man asks, ''Why are you going to sleep on the floor?'' The old woman says, "Because I want to feel something hard for a change."

Ageism- it’s the concept of discriminating on the basis of one’s age. Some say age equals experience; some say, age means lesser reflexes. But, in the grander scheme of things, how much does the other person’s age truly affect you?

That there is a creator of this universe, who does have "a grand scheme" for, not only the universe, but humanity itself, that is not so insignificant, in its potential.

Age has effected me in many ways.

I cannot eat like I used to
I cannot drink like I used to
I cannot run distances like I used to
I cannot sustain speed in running like I used to
I do not have stamina in HIIT like I used to
I am not quick with my strikes like before
I cannot break hard objects with my hands like before.
I am not as flexible as before

I can go on and on...

But fortunately it has not affected me in sex

What I used to do all night now takes me all night to do.

Sounds some on here are so worried by age they are missing out on the joys of being mature
And if you cant drink like you used to Well I say shame on you
Show some elbow and get that grog in ya Bloody youngsters you're getting weak
Look at ya's I could take out a whole High school out now with just one packet of peanuts and a loaf of white high processed wheat bread
namby pamby weak sooks Cant even play games at school cos it might hurt For goodness sake

Ahh dat feels better

I'm grateful that I'm alive, breathing and can still get my legs up in the air.
I am now a silver fox all hair colour gone and I am shocked at the perception of people all because of hair colour. Some thing I coloured it white

For me you can get older by age but not by heart. People are always young by their heart and enjoy life. Yes it though affect the daily routines as it get hard for some people to do it like they used to do it when they were young. For example- sex, once you get older the number of times you do it lessen down. This is what i feel.
