[Siena Dreaming]

One says he wants to work with children, another that he wants to fix up old houses. She wants to run a marathon. He’s going to start a band. AARP believes “you’re never done growing.” Actually, yes you are.

Is there something wrong with working with children, fixing up houses, running marathons, starting bands? Is it better to sit and stare out the window (which is also fine if that is what one chooses).

“Is there something wrong with working with children, fixing up houses, running marathons, starting bands? Is it better to sit and stare out the window (which is also fine if that is what one chooses).”

Nothing is wrong with any of the activities mentioned. However, I would hate to think that the message is gov’t propaganda filtering through the AARP. Will I have to justify my Medicare health care spending with how “productive” I am in my youthful older age?
