Your perspective on life improves dramatically. Now, you have time. When you're younger than 50, you never have time, everything is rushed. When you are young, only young people look beautiful. Over 50, all ages look beautiful. Under 50, sex is time framed, even on a holiday or a dirty weekend. Over 50, sex is relaxed and you can both be completely uninhibited. Under 50, people take offense at some compliments or things I say. Over 50, they smile, say thankyou and have a chat. Over 50, I will stop whatever I am doing to have a coffee and a chat with a friend. Under 50, I tell them that we should get together soon (and rarely do). I am very pleased to be over 50 and love every minute of every day. I am not going to die until I have got back in my Pension at least twice what I have paid in Tax.

We chuck the ego out the window. We tend to state what we think just as we think it. We quit wanting to be part of the crowd and learn to be content with who we are and could care less if you like us or not. And we know the name's of more doctor's then friend's. : )
