PARADE Magazine Feature Article 12-11-2005

I'd been banging this stuff around in my head for some time now, but this article woke me up. Gail Sheehy sets a new passage with her article - Live Longer, Better, Wiser: Life Begins At 60.

It's No Cliche

The best is really yet to come. Past generations toiled for years and never got to enjoy the real fruits of their labor. Ours is one of the first to have our cake at not just an earlier age, but for a longer time period. Heck, we've been able to bake the cake, eat it, throw out the leftovers and start another with much better frosting!

Remember when 'middle aged' meant your mid to late thirties? Whew! Am I glad that's over. Personally I consider my middle age to be fifty. How about you?

In one of our many self-centered conversations focused on folks of our age, fellow Primetime Boomer Stafford L. Battle had this to say "Baby Boomers are the first generation to have outlived old age and to emerge into a new adolescence."

I agree somewhat, except this "new adolescence" will be a lot less gangly and insecure.

Boomers Just Can't Be Stopped

I can hear the whines from the Gen X & Y'ers now - "I'll be glad when those fogies finally kick it!"
NEWSFLASH BABIES: We have no intentions of going anywhere! We are definitely the 'live forever' crowd. And if we don't live forever, well . . . we're still gonna party like we will!

I've started this blog because I'm having the time of my life and I know there are others out there just getting started. The greatest gift possible is to have been born in this age. My friend Sharon Hilliard once commented that we were late bloomers because we didn't get around to doing some things until after the big 4-0. That may be true, but we may just have so many more possibilities than any other age group before us.

This site is dedicated to everything that will make our lives exactly what we want them to be and more. Dash in here for a bit of news on anything that interests the boomer gen.
