life is rewarding

the older we get, the more we appreciate the little things that give life a meaning.

enjoying a pause with a brew, having a chat with friends, taking in a nice panorama, going out for a walk. these are all things that have an intrinsic worth.

unfortunately, the effects of aging can be profound, and the physical struggle is just one aspect of the equation. loneliness is a common issue in old age, and the lack of social interactions increases the risk of depression, cognitive decline, and overall reduced quality of life.
