All the bitterness of the past starts to surface and one starts to realize one’s mistakes more acutely. Our attitudes become bitter and we start living these moments of life as a childish life.
So if you want to embrace the joys of your seventies and beyond, you need to say goodbye to this behavior. It is not good to dwell on the memories of the past all the time. Be it past glories or past failures. These can also get in the way of the remaining joys of life. This doesn’t mean you should forget your past, but it’s okay to remember your past and learn from it. There is a big difference between being old and thinking of yourself as old. When you begin to think of yourself as old, you take yourself to a corner of solitude, where silence and loneliness overwhelm you and you remain trapped in its shell.

Adjust your routine again and go for a walk in the morning. Chat with a friend and start your morning with a good cup of tea. If your health is not as good as it used to be, get yourself medically examined and take care of your health by ignoring what others say, because ‘Jaan Hai To Jahan Hai’.
