If you are sixty, don't think you are too old to enjoy life. Today on your sixtieth birthday is the day you should be grateful that you have reached that age. It is high time you forget about worries and start a life you haven't experienced when you were younger. I'm not yet sixty, I have still a long time to reach this age but I do have a lot of friend who are in their sixties and I envy them because they are a bunch of young-looking, happy-go-lucky oldies, who look at life just like they are in their twenties. They seem to not age as they frolick and hop to enjoy their everyday life.
I look at them as people who know what they want in life. They usually have lunches, dinners, and breakfasts together and talk about their younger days when they were all very young and still depending on their parents to give them their daily allowances. One of them remembered how they used to escape late at night to have their gimmicks. And their trick? They cover their pillows on the bed and make them appear like persons sleeping. That way their parents will think they are sound asleep in their rooms when the truth is they are out somewhere having secret trysts with their friends. They were all so attached together that even in old age they still stick together as one.
Life is so short on earth that when one takes it so seriously and live a life consuming all the negatives that comes, it would be like living in hell. We must always put to mind what happens to us when we don't look the positive way. We sometimes look at things the wrong way and end up being frustrated and discouraged in life. But when we try to look the other way, life would be far better than what we think. Life is what we make it and by living happily, we would indeed find life interesting and happy.
