If you want friends you can find them here.

If you don't want friends, well that is hard to understand, and this isn't the best place, because people will try to befriend you.

People of all ages and all kinds of personalities live here. You get out of life what you put into it most times.

I think most people move here because it is an over 55 retirement community for active older adults. No one should be mad at us because that comprises the majority of people. If someone is fixated on youth and beauty, usually that means they are somewhat immature. People can be immature at any age. People drift toward people with like values but respecting everyone seems to be a very strong value here.

I would not move to a college town and wonder why people weren't wanting to pal around with me. I would get to know them one person at a time and soon they would find how much we have in common.

None of us have ever been this age before and we are learning as we go along.

May we all live here for a thousand years and find joy and peace and laughter.
