I agree with everything you guys have said. I am 70 and I am the happiest I have ever been in my entire life.

I think we reach our maximum maturity at 50, and then we start to get younger and become more child-like. I see little kids in grocery stores with their parents, and they seem to be amazed at all of the types of food on the shelves. When I go out each day, I am kind of the same way. I smile at the people I meet in Wal-Mart, say a few kind words to the server at Panera's, and in general enjoy everything I see and do. I am glad I have come to realize how wonderful it is to be alive.
