To me, about to turn 84, you are young. To my friend aged 101 (who unfortunately died two weeks ago) I was young. But I agree with your sentiment and am in the process of writing a post called Reclaim the Word Old!

I look forward to reading that.

Through my academic work we have the young olds - 60-80 and the old-olds that come later, I think there is a space in between

Denise, this is such a wonderful declaration of vision and intention! I predict your eighth decade will be really satisfying and generative. 😊

It's so interesting, I'm now 50-50 about whether to go ahead and book my big adventure to go into 2027 - I'm moving more to going inwards than out.

Yet another prediction: that you will become more and more adept at finding your own best balance of going in and going out. 😊
