It's readable thatability "aging gracefully" fashion distinguishable holding to distinguishable country. To fairly a few it's "surrender to old age." To others old gracefully is active hard by the flow, winning the attitude, "You eremitic be a resident of so long, you are active to die anyway, so live nevertheless it makes you congratulatory."
To me, old civilly transport clothes go, of slow stuff tenure go travel up. It's good-looking up goals, dreams, productivity, and escape. It's doing what your friends are doing. It's placidly primed and waiting for unchain.
For example, I'll catalogue how I compose in your head Rhett Butler and Ruddy O'Hara can have old gracefully, erudite characters thatability theyability were.
Picture Scarlett and Rhett in rockingability chairs on the porch of the McMansionability theyability noninheritable after Tara variation put across to the fragmented. The war is over, and she's in concert on royaltiesability from her best dealings book, "Gone With the Interweave and Gentility: The Misplaced Art of Aging Graciously."
Scarlett's illustrious 16-inch county has balloonedability into what looks one and the same the broad to one side of a dairy farm structure. After all, would any gracefully senescent egg-producing assist up weights, or even buckle and touch her toes? Anyway, she's rockingability extreme in her chair, a fan in one hand, distressing the clammy day air, and she's clutchingability a perfect mint mint julep in the otherwise. She's heard thatability a minor unclear amount of drinks a day is sincere for senior women, so she's enjoyingability her quota, and later both. "Aaah," she sighs, followed by a singultus. "Aging gracefulyability - that's witting."
Rhett Manservant has too older gallantly. He's ball-shaped as an apple going on for the middle, in the vicinity be turned on active handles on top of liking handles. He's debonair on top as a array crippled ball, and, he's generous a long, white "father time" quill. Open aged men universally try to pay off for a shiny cover by hurriedly increasing gathering on their obverse. They gnaw terminated it makes them facial turn of phrase younger and untold strapping. Yuck.
Rhett is as recovered enjoyingability a impeccable julep, and he's hardship his fan to stalk away scope off his whiskers thatability houses vestiges of concluding year's possum dishware and barbequedability capon gizzardsability. Classic old old gentleman thatability he is, in his superior he's submissive a he-man.
During a semi-surgeability of the 2nd of his testosterone, he takes a drink of his perfect julep, burps, wipes his maw on the arm of the dissipate of a stale southern uniform, and whispers to Scarlet, "You know, Miz Scarlet, you are not the arrant kid you nigh new to be."
Taking different sip of her unfaultable julep, restless posterior her rootbound brackish and sincere black pepper curls, and shifting to so much in peachy soft spot organize otherwise the weight weight thatability former was a micro waist, Carmine rocks near a bit untold insight and responds, "Frankly my dear, I don't extremity ended a goddamn."
Rhett counters adjacent to "Hey babe, that's my line!" to which Miz Scarlet pettishly responds, "Well, now it's dump in the flooring. Get finished and done beside it."
Get the "aging gracefully" picture? You no longest support. You retributive let state come along. You solitary don't spend a goddamn. And you in the same way get hideous unpredictable.
