For the record...

[Shempster]

...I resent being called a Golden Eagle!

I just turned 50 but I am not ready for the retirement home.

Who else is with me?

 

[nChrist]

I'm not with you. There is nothing derogatory about being called a Golden Eagle.

I will be 73 in Jan. and my Wife will give birth late Jan. early Feb.

People can call me anything they want, I just keep on truckin.

Don't be so touchy you have earned your position of respect from those younger.

Welcome to the 'CLUB'

So you have attained, the age of validation_ 50+

and have been provided-with 'a key' [to the door]
to our forums_ WELCOME

I suppose, that you have some
(as yet [to me] indistinct) 'reason'
~to declare your-unwillingness, to be included-within
this CATEGORY ~of being, more than 50 years of age

I would like to hear more_ of your particular 'dilemma'
concerning: your-progression ~to senior-membership_
So please, enlighten us somewhat more-extensively
with regard to your 'reluctance' to accept, this maturity

I am all 'eyes and ears'

Yes and you [they] can call me anything you [they] may like

just so long as it is NOT 'late for dinner'



Eternal Youth (here on earth) is a pipe dream
Ecclesiastes 3:1-17 wraps that subject up pretty-well, I think

I love the name, which I associate with soaring birds experienced in the art of flight, but don't associate it with retirement homes.

Oh I don't know, we could always install castors on our Zimmers

Isaiah 40:31 sure comes to mind ?

There is a difference between giving up and knowing when you've had enough.
It is definitely okay to remove yourself from situations that bring you down
or distance yourself from people who hurt you repeatedly.
