Download or read book 101 Ways to Grow Old Disgracefully written by Richard de Meath and published by . This book was released on 2013-05-22 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we grow rich in years we have begun to pity those who follow behind, recognising they face all the difficulties of their thirties and middle age before them. The joyful arrival at retirement brings with it the delight of newfound freedom, of finally being in control of life, rather than life being in control of us.Strangely enough, what was old age to previous generations has now become the new 'middle-age', a time of refreshment, encouraging us to change our pace and take life as it comes For the first time since childhood we are welcome to do all the things we were unable to do whilst tied to the relentless demands of career and family.The joy of growing old means that more and more people have bought into the opinion that age is simply a state of mind. This belief tells us that as long as we remain active and interested in what is happening outside the home, we are in control of how the passage of years affects us.On our television screens we are able to see many film and pop stars who have remained at the pinnacle of success since the seventies and eighties. We view them as people still in the fullness of life, not as old codgers looking forward to a well-earned retirement. In these modern times, we see life differently; see it as it really is, and certainly not as our parents and their parents imagined it should be. The Baby Boomers of the Nineteen Fifties, Sixties and now the Seventies, have transformed their thinking to look upon life as capable of still surprising and delighting us all.

Book Synopsis Aging Disgracefully by : Danny Cahill
Download or read book Aging Disgracefully written by Danny Cahill and published by Greenleaf Book Group. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does it count as a midlife crisis if you screw up your life and you happen to be entering middle age, or did you screw up your life because you are entering middle age? And does it matter if you take the kind of life most people envy—wealth and success and recognition—and blow it up, hurting everyone you love along the way? Who does that?! Danny Cahill had made it, by any measure: He was a recruiting industry icon with a brilliant, lucrative career, hugely in demand as a motivational speaker, and a noted playwright and writer. But once a serious gym injury began to unravel his childhood deprivations, his mother’s shame-based modus operandi, and the choices he made in search of love, he realized he had thrown it all away in spectacular fashion. In Aging Disgracefully, Cahill takes on the emotionally tricky territory of memoir and charges into deep water to tell a frequently humorous and wonderfully dark tale that spares no one in his life, least of all himself. Painfully authentic and unapologetic, Cahill’s account reveals that no matter how the world rewards you for being at the top of your game, an unresolved past can follow you, shape your choices, and lead to comic and tragic results when lines are crossed. Cahill’s story is ultimately about climbing out of messes, saving ourselves from ourselves, finding exactly what we’ve been looking for, and realizing that it was there all along.

Book Synopsis Troubling Inheritances by : Sara Cohen
Download or read book Troubling Inheritances written by Sara Cohen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-08-11 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an interdisciplinary focus on music, memory, and ageing by examining how they intersect outside of a formal therapeutic context or framework and by offering a counter-narrative to age as decline. It contributes to the development of qualitative research methodologies by utilizing and reflecting on methods for studying music, memory, and ageing across diverse and interconnected contexts. Using the notion of inheritance to trouble its core themes of music, memory, ageing, and methodology, it examines different ways in which the concept of inheritance is understood but also how it commonly refers to the practice of passing on, and the connections this establishes across time and space. It confronts the ageist discourses that associate popular music predominantly with youth and that focus narrowly, and almost exclusively, on music's therapeutic function for older adults. By presenting research which examines various intersections of music and ageing outside of a therapeutic context or framework, the book brings a much-needed intervention.

But what if they were? And so he writes—in a plain, green journal—the truth about his own life and leaves it in his local café. It's run by the incredibly tidy and efficient Monica, who furtively adds her own entry and leaves the book in the wine bar across the street. Before long, the others who find the green notebook add the truths about their own deepest selves—and soon find each other In Real Life at Monica's Café. The Authenticity Project's cast of characters—including Hazard, the charming addict who makes a vow to get sober; Alice, the fabulous mommy Instagrammer whose real life is a lot less perfect than it looks online; and their other new friends—is by turns quirky and funny, heartbreakingly sad and painfully true-to-life.

The Authenticity Project is just the tonic for our times that readers are clamoring for—and one they will take to their hearts and read with unabashed pleasure.

Book Synopsis Ageing Disgracefully with Grace by : Michael John Lowis
Download or read book Ageing Disgracefully with Grace written by Michael John Lowis and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A doctor was once heard to say that it is a pity we know our own age; otherwise, we could just say that we are as old as we feel. The populations of most countries are ageing, and because of this we can anticipate many years of retirement. We need to make the most of this opportunity, but we are faced with exhortations such as "act your age." Does this mean that older people should not have fun anymore, but should instead conform to conventional stereotypes such as being unproductive, conventional, inflexible, serene, and no longer interested in intimacy? In other words, should people have to grow old gracefully? The answer is no. Instead, we should enjoy ageing while still having fun and living life to the fullest. The author, Dr. Mike Lowis, is a psychologist and theologian who has numerous academic publications to his name, including over sixty articles in peer-reviewed journals, two books and two book chapters. His vast research experience, plus being himself in the 'third age' of life, adequately qualifies him to write on the topic of making the most of the retirement years. He delights in debunking the myths and stereotypes of ageing, and gives many examples of individuals who have achieved great things in later life. The book includes details on several ways that can help older people to cope with life, including making full use of both music and humour. It also reviews biblical texts that refer to the virtues of, and the respect for, older people. This book is written in an accessible style that should also appeal to the interested general reader. The book also includes some simple self-test exercises that readers are invited to complete, the results of which should help those interested to gauge their own levels of progress toward life satisfaction.
