[@markasteelsr.5990]

I turned 70 in June. Most of your story applies to me. Though the years I too have given much more that I ever received. A family member would call me ONLY when she needed something. These somethings would always put a drain on my modest/very/limited resources. To put it bluntly I know now when I am being taken advantage of and being used as a chump! I sacrificed/worked my fingers till they bled, and my back until the aches made me eat aspirin like they were candies. I equated love with giving. It is not, now I don't hear from anyone who I've done for so diligently when I was younger. No regrets because I now look FORWARD to those treasures IN HEAVEN and we owe this all to Jesus, and what he has done for us.

@@roberturen8569 I totally agree about stupid people. Sadly, they're everywhere and attempts to discuss important topics with them are fruitless. Television has had a negative impact on society, coupled with social media. This sounds like an oxymoron, but I'm on social media because I host a channel that deals with an important topic. Interesting: The libraries in my County have their public computers set to block access to all forms of social media.

I have always been fiercely protective of my time. I chose the career paths that make me truly happy. I never did go to parties that were just formal. I never did anything unless I had a good reason. Never because others are doing it, or it seems to be expected of me. Snap your fingers: 70 is the new 30. Time to live in Nature. Time to enjoy wild aniimals. I have too much to do and so much to learn, sitting for iddle chats is just unstandable. There was never enough time before 70 and now I am trying to catch up😂 I dont think about time itself, more about projects and how to make it all happen. ClearIly making sure you stay healthy is priority one: make that fun too. I am now my own research project😂 There is a tradition in my mind, every year animals are my best Christmas present: companions as well as wild ones.

At night I sit on my balcony looking out over ocean and able to say " there is no other place I want to be, nothing I'd rather be doing and need nothing I can't buy at 7-11 ".

What beach in Thailand or at least general area in Thailand? I lived and worked in Bangkok 6 years for an American company. I'm back in the U.S. now, American born and raised, and I've just entered my 60s and would like to leave America. It's a country that has run its course, the medical system is impossible, doctors are mean and not intelligent, insurance is impossible, neighbors no longer know one another, people of different political parties hate each other more fiercely than ever before, the taxes and expenses are impossible to live with, most middle age people are aging toward a retirement as a homeless person and they don't realize it. I'm looking at Thailand, the safe parts of Mexico, and also Portugal. What are the pros and cons of Thailand now in 2024 for an expat? I lived there 1992-1998.

[@johnpatterson6448]

An inspiring post. I live in Chiang Mai. Yesterday I had one of those insights that is both profound and bleeding obvious: “I am the best version of me. I could listen to advice and criticism of how I could be better. Then I’d be a bad version of someone I’m not. I could look at other people, shake my head and wonder why can’t they just be more like me. The answer is that then they would be second rate versions of me. Instead of being the best version of themselves”. None of this precludes the possibility of organic personal growth. But as I learn things about my natural self (eg childhood experiences that I have tended to dismiss), I now listen with an inner sceptical smile to those who offer me advice. They can’t know the inner workings of my mind; I didn’t even understand them myself. On trust (which you mention): I never give blanket trust. I might trust someone with my wallet - but not my girlfriend and vice-versa. If I trust someone to be on time and yet they have never been on time, then more fool me. I wish you well and continued satisfaction.

1 👍 I’m 76! And live alone. I enjoy walking . Recently I realized that I didn’t have to drive to the grocery store. I could walk there and back! I have a nice backpack that I use to wear for camping. Now I use it for grocery shopping. I purchase what I can carry and walk it home, often humming an encouraging “Mantra.” It has created conversations in the store and out on the path home. I bring a good walking stick with me for balance and self defense. I was once a champion football player and I served 6 years in the US Air Force. So I’m attuned to vigorous challenges. These “Power Walks” keep me alive and enhance my over all life experience. I don’t drive to the local mall anymore. I walk there. When I arrive I treat myself to a large chocolate and vanilla ice cream cone that I consume as I walk the mall. I live in a two bedroom apartment that is full of books. I love my books and I love the Barnes And Noble Book Store in the Mall.

Do you even understand what the 'peace' sign really means? This is spiritual and maybe you should find out. I'll tell you. It's an upside down cross with the vertical beam broken downward. It's the Mercedes Benz logo. We started seeing it in the 60s when the American push against Christianity began but were duped into believing it meant peace. I never liked it and didn't wear it around my neck or imprinted into tie-dyed clothing. Don't take my word for it; do your own research if so inclined.

I'm sorry to tell you there's no god. I'm not telling you this to be nasty, I'm telling you so you don't waste your time thinking about something that was written for self policing purposes. You're your own god, if you need something or someone to believe in, believe in yourself. You only need to see what's going on in the world to realise religion is the biggest cause of upset and conflict. It's these beliefs that tempt you to make comparisons and choices that are unnecessary. I was brought up in the care system in the UK and I noticed as I grew that religion creates the biggest divides of life and people use this religion to get closer to others for spurious reasons. I have learned to live by a code of conduct that isn't restricted by the belief in a religion that was written by man for self policing purposes. Believe in yourself and make choices based on experience and understanding. Society will give you enough to think about without the need for a belief system that will restrict you and your inner growth. I choose to live by a code of conduct that means people get interaction with me with no baggage and no alterior motive. Life is for learning and sharing not for worship and trying to live by someone else's restrictions and guidance that was written in a completely different time that no longer exists. Find peace and belief in yourself before you jump on the god wagon. Life's too short to waste on pure belief in something that you will never see or touch or have any interaction with. And if you hear a voice in your mind that's your inner self, pure instinct guiding you. Animals have no belief system and yet you can witness an animal having compassion and respect for even another species that has no connection to it it's pure instinct.

When haven't you been yourself, or have you always been in love with you?

[@barbarabrown9269]

As I have aged I realize we pull away from people because jealousy is ever present. No matter how old or slowed down physically one is, what one has achieved, there is always that someone who wants to knock you down. Through hard work, smarts and self discipline, I am free of bothersome annoyances. I am debt free, have enough wealth, have a nice place. I visit old friends to be greeted warmly, BUT eventually in the visit they gotta get that dig in. All will be seemingly well when suddenly, as of they can’t help it, they, a friend or relative, will say “what ever happened with that - (some temporary situation that occurred 20 years ago go, or when you were 10 years old, you are now 70.). Every thing seems fine, everyone seems happy, but there is that wrench they throw designed to knock you off balance and change the dynamic, make the visit hostile. They just want to one-up you. Maybe they are angry at some misfortune they suffered, and they absolutely begrudge anyone any pleasure. Maybe their life didn’t turn out well, they hate that you are doing well. Anyway, you see no point in ever seeing them again. That is mostly why people withdraw.

I am 60 and pulled away from people 10 years ago because I had nothing left to give when love wasn't enough. I just expected too much from others, and others expected the same from me. I tried lowering my expectations to reach a compromise, but my terms were never accepted or acceptable. I suffered disappointment after disappointment, so I decided to let them be, and if they just wanted to hang out without wanting me to do something for them, they knew where I was. I kept my boundaries in tact, but alienated everyone in the process. For 10 years I set about finding my "tribe" until I realised they were not of this world, so I decided to become a hermit and I have never felt such a sense of relief. At first I was lonely, but when I realised that was the sacrifice I needed to make for the alternative, I quickly got over it.

I understand how you feel. I’m 59 years old and feeling this way myself. I Love my solitude. I enjoy being away from drama and hate. I used to do that and make everyone happy but, I always left behind. I appreciate this video. It’s my favorite and it’s saying what how it is and how I truly feel.

This video really spoke to me. At 72, I’ve also started distancing myself from certain people-not out of anger, but to protect my peace. I’ve realized that not everyone adds value to your life, and it’s okay to prioritize your well-being. Your insights helped me feel less guilty about this decision. Sometimes, solitude and choosing meaningful connections over quantity are what we truly need. Thank you for shedding light on this topic-it’s such an important message! 🧡

I’m 63 and I started noticing with my children’s generation that no one’s word means anything anymore. Not only with their friends but also with the parents of their friends that for the most part were younger than me. I watched my kids be stood up on many occasions or when they invited a friend to do something we couldn’t get an answer out of not the child but the parents. I even texted a mother one time to please get back with me one way or the other so my daughter could invite someone else , no response.. it is appalling. People stopped teaching their children that their word should mean something .. But I learned in the 5th grade to protect my heart when my 2 best friends dropped me for the new girl , out of no where. It was devastating,a tough life lesson that affected me forever.. However I swore I would never let any one get that close again.. I do have friends but always kept the past in my mind..

I have recently let go of toxic friendships. It was not easy as true friends are in short supply. It hurt at the time, but now it is very freeing. Thank you for sharing your experience. It has certainly given me food for thought.

Letting go is hard but can be so freeing. Cheers to embracing healthier relationships and finding peace. 🌿
