As you age, it’s important to keep a sense of humor – so here are some inspiring quotes about getting older to make you laugh.
Growing older is not for the faint of heart. It’s for the strong of spirit (and the elastic of waistband.)

You can age quickly…or age slowly. It’s your decision! But if you want to age at your best, you will love my longevity book Life Is Long: 50+ Ways To Live A Little Closer To Forever.
