The Beauty of Getting Older

The best thing I learned after hitting fifty was that I needed the courage to reassess and unthinkable everything that I thought I knew about life. At sixty five I am still active and don't take my health for granted. Intimacy is still wonderful and I do want to explore a bit, knock a few more things off of the bucket list. I appreciate family and friends a great deal more and the small beauty and wonders of nature.

Didn't make the time and could have cared less when I was younger
 
There is beauty in almost everything around us—we just need to open our eyes and truly see it. Sometimes it’s easy to get caught up in comparing ourselves to unrealistic standards or feeling discouraged by the challenges we face. These days, I have to stick to a strict diet and Buy Ozempic Online to help manage my health, which isn’t always easy. But you know what? Despite all that, I still believe my body is beautiful. It might not fit the typical mold or what society often calls “perfect,” but it’s mine—strong, resilient, and worthy of love. Learning to appreciate that has been a huge part of my journey.

I feel the older I get, the more sexually “open” I get. Twenty years ago I never EVER would have become aroused at the sight of another cock, or even getting hard looking at shemales. Not sure what happened, but it was like a light switch. I’m trying to open up to my wife but she is entering menopause and we are dealing with enough as it is. And on top of it all is my public sector job, where I can almost see the world imploding if they would find out my sexual openness. Maybe things will change closer to mid-50’s, but for right now, I have a full plate!!
 
Gaining perspective, letting go of things that don't matter, taking time to appreciate beauty...these have helped me become more accepting of things, including my own sexuality. Maybe it has changed, or I simply realized what was always there, either way I feel calmer, freer.
 
I enjoy the sense of relief because we have successfully raised two great kids and they are having a positive impact on young people. Sex is not as adventurous as it once was, but we enjoy making love while remembering those past adventures. We could finally sell our "starter" house and build a new one that better meets our needs. The only downside is the physical act of growing older: more aches and pains.
 
When I do anything physical I will know about it the next day, but I think of it as a good hurt,,,, I understand that I haven't used certain muscle groups in a long time. The funny things is, my body hurt in my late teens and early twenties too for the same reason and I was young and in shape. I worked for a general contractor and helped out on farms. We might pour concrete for a week and then frame a house the next and move on to roofing followed by painting. ....and then it would start all over again. going through all of those different activities kept my body sore, But we were building muscle and looked good at the beach and we were okay with it....and no way would we complain much...... I think I hurt as much then as now after activity...... but that is good..... keeps me from really straining or hurting myself down the road. It reminds us we are alive !
 
I don't like it. I just turned 59. Still have the same responsibility. Probably don't have enough to retire. I don't want to die yet, even though I know where I am going is great. My mom was 67. Growing old is not for sissies.
