I'll keep this one

Gold!!! took me years to get that. Didnt like being away from work until I realised nobody cared and if I fall sick and cant work, I will be replaced. Now, if someone asks me to do something and I have scheduled a rest, I say am busy or am booked.

[@AlexejSvirid]

This is the God's word, Deuteronomy 5: 12-15: "Observe the sabbath day, to keep it holy, as Jehovah thy God commanded thee. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; but the seventh day is a sabbath unto Jehovah thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou. And thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God brought thee out thence by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm: therefore Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day." (ASV) You ain't just doing something. You're following the God's commandment. Genesis 2: 1-3: "And the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it; because that in it he rested from all his work which God had created and made." (ASV) The rest is blessed by the God. The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why deception and violence are everywhere. This is the reason why liers and murderers feel good while righteous persons are persecuted. This is the reason why Hitler got the power, but Christ was executed as "blasphemer" and "rioter" by denunciation of clergy. This is the reason why the whole world is Sodom. That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our loved ones again! :-)

"Laughter without love is cruel. Laughter with love is joy and happiness." Best interview thus far.

[@juliehock6059]

I agree with this. I became a widow when I was 62 and decided to move back to Australia to be with my granddaughter and daughter. I was grieving but caring for my 3 year old granddaughter gave me a purpose in life and I felt freedom to live my life as I wished. In 2012 I met a man online, and we have been partners in life and love since. We dont live together but spend several days per week together. We have a loving and supportive relationships. Today we sat in the park, enjoying the sunshine and the trees around us, there was even a new Gymea flowering which we’ll watch its’ progress over the year. I think that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is very important, keep moving and eat well. I still cook and exercise 3 x times weekly at the gym . wth kettlebells. AT 82 I feel contented with my life - as the motto goes: “Have someone to love, someone who loves you, something to do every day or be responsible for and take care of yourself.”. Greetings from Australia

You're correct. I think the smartest way to go is to spread out your investments. By putting your money into different asset classes like bonds, real estate, and stocks from other countries, you can lower the risk if one part of the market goes bad.

It always helps me to hear from someone experienced in suffering, as I’m just fighting to find the silver lining. I want to thank Gladys because what I’ve taken from her conversation is that there might be another side to this awful life for me. I struggle with the waiting. It’s been 20 years of abject cruelty & neglect & I’m now disabled & can see no way out. I have no real family or friends. There’s just me trying to make a way out of no way. Gladys is a beautiful soul who, in this moment of sorrow, is inspiring me to just hold on.

Do it feel the same as when women get divorced? Although I know it's different because he didn't hurt you or leave you intentionally. But the time spent being a wife I heard is not the same when you're single. In your situation it's different of course but do you feel more alive and free???

With God or without God. We are eternal beings. Without God is called hell. With God, she needs an entrance ticket. His name is Jesus. No one is perfect. We all sinned. Jesus paid the penalty for our sins. Is there any other religious leader that did that? Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but by him. A quote from the Bible.

[@00pinkman00]

Interesting perspective. After seventy plus years and having lost two wives to disease, I consistently ask myself why, of all people, am i still here? What Gladys said to me is "I am not thinking about my life correctly." As a septuagenarian I can continue on without fear, or blame, revel in the shared memories of my life and of those who I shared the experience, and as Gladys advises spread that light we find on our individual paths. I was especially moved by the challenges she meet by being unafraid. World War Two she said had considerable bad news for everyone. She learned she was not alone and was able to deal with the fear in that knowledge. We are all afraid at certain points in time. Gladys's fear of hunger resonated with me the most. If you are hungry, though no fault of your own, you just keep looking for the "light." That may sound a bit non-specific, but I understood what she was trying to say. We are not hungry alone. We learn to share and make the best of our common experience. There were other nuggets of advice I took from Gladys's perspective, so I saved a copy of this video to reference from time to time. I am not confident my life would last anywhere near one hundred years and that is not my goal. All I ask is to depart this world with the peace of mind that my life was worth the journey and somewhere, I was able benefit my fellow travelers with what I had learned.

Dr. Gladys said it best during the interview: contentment. It's about contentment. Yes, we have our ups and downs, but you MUST find the light and within it, contentment. That is the key to peace and longevity. 💜💫

She is my inspiration. I'm 63 and have set a goal to try to live to 100. People always say... Why? Think about how OLD you will feel, you will probably be sick and helpless. Well maybe? but maybe not. Look at Dr. Gladys. I think setting goals mentally and physically, keeping mentally and physically active and having that wonderful positive attitude that life is amazing is what will keep a person going.

My Great Aunt died not so long ago and she would've been 103 this in December. She lived through so much in her life, though her smile would light up a room. Her laughter would fill a room. She never complained and loved all of us so much. She was always hopeful.

“Keep moving” one of the greatest advice for long life. That’s why I don’t believe it when someone says “I’m just too tired to exercise” or “I don’t have time”. If you wanna live long you gotta eat healthy and keep moving.

[@lansvance4870]

The sister of my grandpa made it to age 101. She never married, had no kids, ate a diet consisting of coffee, cookies, veggies soup and fried meat. She was skinny as a bird and walked everywhere. A man who worked for a distant relative made it to age 114. He started working for the family when he was 14, expend his day running errands in the household and ate a simply diet of Mexican food. He only died because he caught a bad cold during a storm ☔️ So yes… simple eating and basic exercise/having stuff to do goes far 😊

[@ld3507]

Sprouht, you looked shocked that Gladys' husband found new love at 70. My mother got married again at 79! They were both widowed, had known each other for 25 years😅 but were married to others. They were adorable and so happy together! I see many who don't want another relationship. There are still people that do. And when it's unexpected, it's like one of those pleasant surprises in life that just happen. In one of your interviews, a woman said, and I'm paraphrasing, don't pay attention to lifes expiration date! I love that! The above is a great example. Love your vids. Always thought-provoking 👍💞

[@JW-bv8fm]

I took it that he was more surprised that he left her at that age . That he gave her up to find someone else at that point in their lives together. That’s what I got from it. I could be wrong. But yes, I do believe you can find love at any age. I just don’t think that’s what he was really surprised about.

[@carmenpretty5937]

The shock was probably leaving your wife of 46 years and 6 kids for another woman. It's not hard to believe you can fall in love at any age.

[@BearingMySeoul]

I was just as incredulous that a man of that age would throw away stable family life for some other rando. It's one thing if you feel that life would be better alone but to leave behind stability to start over with someone else is a young fool's game...

A very fascinating video, this brings back painful memories which i have been enduring. My relationship of 6 years ended 3 months ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life , but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t , I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her .

[@JustinLouis-p1u]

Parting ways with someone you deeply cherish is an agonizing experience. I understand firsthand, having encountered a parallel situation at the end of my 7 year relationship. Driven by an unyielding determination, I explored every avenue to salvage our bond. Seeking guidance from a spiritual counselor proved pivotal, as their intervention played a crucial role in rekindling our love.

[@paulatk44]

That's fascinating! How did you come across a spiritual counselor, and what's the best way for me to contact her?

I'm grateful for this valuable information; I've just taken a moment to find her online. Very impressive!

[@jolantagrys2205]

I'm sorry for your loss. The fact that you grieve for someone shows that you know how to love. I don't know that if she and you will return to the same relationship you had had. Sometimes people grow apart, things happen, circumstances beyond your control. But you will love again, and this person will see how wonderful you are. Continue to work on being a strong, wonderful man, find curiosity in the little things and someone will also be curious and share that with you and a relationship will grow.

[@chnalvr]

Dr. Gladys McGarey recently authored a book, "The Well-Lived Life." It's a very inspirational look at her life as a young woman in medical school and coming of age in a world that did not embrace female physicians. She details juggling her medical career as she gave birth to and raised six children along with her husband, while delivering hundreds (maybe thousands) of babies in her own medical practice. My big takeaway from her is to live with love in the light that brings reason and direction to my life.

[@julievw6520]

Thank you for the woman's name and name of her book!

[@elizabethwilk9615]

What a beautiful accomplished woman not only as a professional but as someone who gives love and walks towards the light. I would have loved to know how she managed her professional life and having six kids. What strikes me about her is that she’s an optimist she refuses to sit in darkness.
