When an older adult starts giving things away, the easy reading is that they are preparing to disappear. The furniture, the jewellery, the books, the tools, the boxes of photographs: each departure can look like a small surrender. There is another way to read it. Sometimes the person is not letting go of the past. ... Read more Read more ›

The friendships people carry into old age often look, from the outside, like proof of loyalty. Two people still call each other after fifty years. Three old friends still meet for lunch. A school friend still knows the family story without needing the short version. It is easy to explain this as sentiment: they stayed ... Read more Read more ›

The usual story about people who stay fit into their 70s is a story about exceptional character. They must be more motivated. They must have better genes.
