Aging In Place, City of Vancouver, Washington. Excellent overview of various senior issues and resources in the City of Vancouver, WA.


"Clark County, much like the rest of the nation, has entered an aging trend. The number of people over the age of 60 is projected to grow by 142 percent between 2010 and 2040, making seniors 27 percent of Clark County’s population by 2040. As of 2017, around one out of every five people is over the age of 60 in Vancouver. As the population continues to age, the City can take measures to increase the ability for seniors to “age in place,” or be able to stay in their homes or communities as they age. From supporting aging services and programs, to addressing housing affordability, to planning for increasing walkability, recreational opportunities, and transit options, the City is working to improve the livability of neighborhoods to support aging in place."

“It's paradoxical that the idea of living a long life appeals to everyone, but the idea of getting old doesn't appeal to anyone.”
-  Andy Rooney 

 

"How old would you be if you didn't know how old you was?"
-  Satchel Paige

 

“It is best as one grows older to strip oneself of possessions, to shed oneself downward like a tree, to be almost wholly earth before one dies.” 
-  Sylvia Townsend Warner

 

"But who you are is not a concept in the sky, and it's not a record of you accomplishments either.  The most original and creative side of you can re-emerge only when you get time of your own, free time, wide-open time, uncommitted time, time in which to go after dreams or do absolutely nothing if you choose.  Without it you can't have a self."
-  Barbara Sher, It's Only Too Late If You Don't Start Now, 1998, p 228

 

“Age has no reality except in the physical world. The essence of a human being is resistant to the passage of time. Our inner lives are eternal, which is to say that our spirits remain as youthful and vigorous as when we were in full bloom. Think of love as a state of grace, not the means to anything, but the alpha and omega. An end in itself.”
-  Gabriel Garcia Marquez 

 

"America is growing older at an unprecedented rate. The number of people 65 and older is larger than ever before, and those 85 and older constitute the fastest growing segment of the population.

“The older I get, the more I see there are these crevices in life where things fall in and you just can't reach them to pull them back out. So you can sit next to them and weep or you can get up and move forward. You have to stop worrying about who's not here and start worrying about who is.”

"Exuberance" derived from the Latin exuberanceex, "out of," + uberare, "to be fruitful, to be abundant"― is as its core a concept of fertility.  Exuberance in nature is defined by lush, profuse, riotous growth; it is an overflowing, opulent, and copious abundance.  ... In our time, "exuberance" usually denotes a mood or temperament of joyfulness, ebullience, and high spirits, a state of overflowing energy and delight.  It is more energetic than joy and enthusiasm but less intense, although of longer duration, than ecstasy.  The origins of the concept of exuberance in the cyclic fertility of nature, now largely forgotten, remain critical to understanding it as a primitive life force vital to survival."

“Let no one be slow to seek wisdom when he is young nor weary in the search of it when he has grown old. For no age is too early or too late for the health of the soul. And to say that the season for studying philosophy has not yet come, or that it is past and gone, is like saying that the season for happiness is not yet or that it is now no more. Therefore, both old and young alike ought to seek wisdom, the former in order that, as age comes over him, he may be young in good things because of the grace of what has been, and the latter in order that, while he is young, he may at the same time be old, because he has no fear of the things which are to come. So we must exercise ourselves in the things which bring happiness, since, if that be present, we have everything, and, if that be absent, all our actions are directed towards attaining it.”
- Epicurus, Letter to Menoeceus

 

"Through processes embedded in valued subjective experience we have learned that disciplining how we think and feel about ourselves and our health is as important to well-being as any physiological markers of disease.  Positive Aging describes a process whereby we take control of our own late life experiences by discovering meaning in growing old that transcends the deteriorative processes of aging.  Positive Agers posses four characteristics: (a) mobilizing resources to meet the challenges of aging, (b) making life choices that preserve well-being, (c) cultivating flexibility to deal with age-related decline, and (d) focusing on the positives (verses the negatives) in old age."
-  Robert T. Hill 

 

“Wisdom comes with winters.”
-  Oscar Wilde

 

"I will never be an old man.  To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am."
-  Bernard M. Baruch

 

"There is no old age.  There is, as there always was, just you."
-  Carol Matthau

 

"Aging is not 'lost youth' but a new stage of opportunity and strength."
-  Betty Friedan

 

"Nobody grows old merely by living a number of years.  We grow old by deserting our ideals.  Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul."
-  Samuel Ullman

 

"Wisdom doesn't automatically come with old age.  Nothing does - except wrinkles.  It's true, some wines improve with age.  But only if the grapes were good in the first place."
-  Abigail Van Buren

 

"The problems of aging present an opportunity to rethink our social and personal lives in order to ensure the dignity and welfare of each individual."
-  Daisaku Ikeda


"Old men ought to be explorers
Here and there does not matter
We must be still and still moving
Into another intensity
For a further union, a deeper communion"

-  Francis Bacon


"Being a woman, French, a writer, sixty-four years old in 1972: What does that mean? ... At present I am concerned with
recovering my life --- reviving forgotten mories, re-reading, re-seeing, rounding off incomplete pieces of knowledge, filling gaps, clarifying obscurities, gathering scattered elements together."
- Simone de Beauvoir, All Said and Done, p. 39

 

“The curse of mortality. You spend the first portion of your life learning, growing stronger, more capable. And then, through no fault of your own, your body begins to fail. You regress. Strong limbs become feeble, keen senses grow dull, hardy constitutions deteriorate. Beauty withers. Organs quit. You remember yourself in your prime, and wonder where that person went. As your wisdom and experience are peaking, your traitorous body becomes a prison.”
-  Brandon Mull

 

“In terms of days and moments lived, you’ll never again be as young as you are right now, so spend this day, the youth of your future, in a way that deflects regret. Invest in yourself. Have some fun. Do something important. Love somebody extra. In one sense, you’re just a kid, but a kid with enough years on her to know that every day is priceless.”
-  Victoria Moran

 

"Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty.  Anyone who keeps learning stays young.  The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young."
-  Henry Ford

-  Plato

 

"The deepest definition of youth is life as yet untouched by tragedy."
-  Alfred North Whitehead

Beat around the bush
Lift myself up by the bootsraps

Add fuel to the fire
Pave the roadway to hell

Put my foot in my mouth
Start the ball rolling

I have benefitted from reading and adopting the ideas and suggestions of Andrew Weil, M.D..  His books are informative and provide persuasive facts and arguments for using “integrative medicine” to achieve improved health and well-being.  Persons of all ages can benefit from his advice, and his book “Healthy Aging” is especially relevant to seniors like myself.  Those who practice Taijiquan, Qigong, and Yoga will find support for their practices in Dr. Weil’s writing.

"If I can create a relationship characterized on my part:
by a genuineness and transparency, in which I am my real feelings;
by a warm acceptance of and prizing of the other person as a separate individual;
by a sensitive ability to see his world and himself as he sees them;
Then the other individual in the relationship:
will experience and understand aspects of himself which previously he as repressed;
will find himself becoming better integrated, more able to function effectively;
will become more similar to the person he would like to be;
will be more self-directing and self-confident;
will become more of a person, more unique and more self-expressive;
will be more understanding, more acceptant of others;
will be able to cope with the problems of life more adequately and more comfortably."
On Becoming a Person: A Therapist's View of Psychotherapy, p. 37.  By Carl R. Rogers.  Written around 1955.

Emphasize love, not hate
Recognize your imperfection but aim to improve
Try something new
Focus your attention; don't waste time thoughtlessly
Find a model person to imitate
Seek to empathize
Value encounters with others
Maintain small eating habits
But don't be neurotic about diet; enjoy food
Walk; use stairs as much as possible
Participate in group sport activities
Enjoy leisure; avoid a life with only work
Handle stress by exercising; walk, play
Take responsibility for your own behavior
Change habits when necessary; don't be obsessed with maintaining habits"

"Although the average life expectancy of U.S. males has risen over the past century, life expectancy has declined since 2019, largely due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As of 2021, the average age of death in men is 73 years old, with the most common causes of death being heart disease, cancer, unintentional deaths, COVID-19 infection, and stroke.
Healthy lifestyle habits, such as a nutritious diet and regular exercise, are essential for men to reduce the risk of heart disease, infection, cancer, and stroke. Due to their increased risk of accidental deaths, men should only drink in moderation and avoid risk-taking behaviors that could lead to accidental drownings, falls, or vehicular crashes."
