This group is for those who are in their Fabulous 50s, Super 60s, Successful 70s, Ebullient 80s, New 90s and beyond.
~~The Birthday Calendar helps us to celebrate and live with awareness! ~~
We have some under-50s too, who join us from time to time! Ultimately it's not about being age-conscious, as about honoring...(more) the passage of time, that unique gift of life on earth. Discussions that keep going Around the Fire This is our time! Never before have so many gathered, as we can today, who are 50+, literate, online, able to participate in this unprecedented opportunity to interact with others all over the world. No longer can we say - “Back in the days when it was my time..”
It doesn't really matter what age we are; we can gain perspective from each others' experiences.
This is your space so please feel free to start threads, ask questions, suggest, discuss, share pictures or let us know what you are doing or plan to do.
What a man knows at 50 that he did not know at 20 is, for the most part, incommunicable. The knowledge he has acquired with age is not the knowledge of formulas, or forms of words, but of people, places, actions - a knowledge gained not by words but by touch, sight, sound, victories, failures, sleeplessness, devotion, love - the human experiences and emotions of this earth and of oneself and other men; and perhaps, too, a little faith, a little reverence for things one cannot see. Adlai Stevenson(1900 - 1965)
Some threads of discussion never expire. They'll be listed here from time to time. Pick 'em up, come around the fire and add some [wise, witty or inspired] fuel!
