Do you worry about getting older?

[Agneeta]

My dad turned 90 this year and so I couldn’t help but automatically think what a young whippersnapper your dad sounds being 70.

My main goal now is getting him to 100 so that he can walk around the garden a few times and I can rake in the cash

I knew your Dad was older, but I can't get my head round someone of my generation having parents born before the war.

GOOD FOR HIM.

Yes!

He was 8 when WWII ended and he tells a great story about him and all his friends being baffled and thrilled when tasting a banana for the first time

Well, I'm probably the youngest active user here I don't exactly worry/see myself worrying in future though. I've been mostly content with being 'forever alone' since my teen years. I have sisters; I'm the eldest, still live with family, but living alone would be fine.

Regarding losing looks and things, I just think of Gina Lollobrigida's quote: "A woman at 20 is like ice, at 30 she is warm and at 40 she is hot."

I'd just be grateful to even be around in my 40s, 50s, 60s.
