" Older people tend
to derive more
of their satisfaction
from ordinary
everyday experiences. "
The Journal of Consumer Research
" A happy retirement
isn't just about
financial security."
Forbes
[ The Money, Business, Finance Magazine ]
A British study
of well-being showed
that, aside from teenagers,
people of pension age
— 65 and older —
had the highest
life satisfaction . . .

Older people may be satisfied and they keep themselves out of trouble if they don't bother too much of others. Great cloud pics Cloudia!

I am not 65 yet, but I am enjoying retirement... Love the clouds photos..Happy Sunday!
I agree with those quotes and especially the first one. The simplest things give me the greatest pleasure. Awesome and spectacular skies you have shown us today. Have a great one my friend :)
Retirement has its problems and benefits, like most stages in our lives.
The GREATEST benefit, for me, is not having to rush to work every day. Not having to rush at all if I so wish.
In other words I can take my time.
The DOWNSIDE of this is that I feel so very sorry that millions of others are still having to go through the daily rush to work. I feel rather guilty about this.
Silly old man I hear you cry, but that's my way.
Super photos, as always Cloudia.
I DO enjoy ordinary, everyday experiences! And I think my life is much happier now than when I was a teenager. :))
Older people very often got it together when it comes to living. Great thought, Cloudia.
wouldnt it be great if we could learn that kind of appreciation younger? smiles.

The colours are so beautiful.
Ah yes, but there's so much to see with our eyes in the clouds!
What happens when I'm shooting outside- Note to self, try and capture even one stunning, screaming-delightful sky like Cloudia!
your comment made me smile. :)
the main issue for aging is health
Don't trip when your head is in the clouds. Being satisfied with life is an art.
I'm not a teenager OR a fogey. What do I do now?? ;-P
Thanks for these interesting and companionable remarks, Dears <3
Old people, and those who nurture and feed their inner child...
I'm looking forward to feeling satisfied!
Beautiful skies Cloudia, no one can do it, lovely.
Gorgeous skies, Cloudia!
