My father's mother lived to 108 years of age. She always told people that eating healthy and faith in Jesus will extend your life. She said that stress and worry is a killer.

@Kayla Nguyen I'm saying there is no formula for longevity that is proven. Most would agree stress and worry are not food, however Jesus,diet and smoking are debatable and proven not to be absolutes.

She got to witness my brother's wedding last year and she passed away naturally by the end of last year. I'm fortunate that my family is genetically gifted for living longer. My grandfather and grandmother are 95 & 89 respectively and alive and none of them have any medical condition.

Since she worked until she was 81, she had a good retirement check and research has shown that having financial security makes an elderly person have better food, access to gyms and other things. I remember Dr. Joyce Brothers, the famous therapist, who was told when she qualified to attend graduate school at Columbia U. in NYC, that she should go home and leave that slot for a man, who would need the profession to suppose his wife and children. I'm sure Ruth was told the same thing.

Sage I know right? One of the things that makes me very sad in todays world is Older people get tossed aside and usually end up dying lonely. In other most Asian countries the elderly are looked up to with great respect for their wisdom and usually live with families when they can no longer take care of themselves or so they don’t get left alone. And yes it’s starting to change their like over here but they are still treated with much respect. And older person has been through it all and can teach us so much. I am not saying this because I am 57. Lol I am saying this because I witness it all the time. They are people with hearts and love and wisdom and have a story to tell.

Totally agree- you have to have something to look forward to and socialize.also diet--plenty fruits and vegetables -less flour, salt, sugar,fatty snacks;try to eat main meal before 6pm;a little exercise and peace of mind.of course-- good genes. My father is 80 years - still drives, exercises, take vitamins , eats plenty fruits and vegis, goes out with his friends, church etc and has my loving mother as company, although they are always quarrelling with each other- lol.She does all the cooking ; ensures that he takes his medication;the housework;groceries etc.but she is 70 years and going strong also. He has diabetes and high blood pressure because he loves food and still never seriously watches his diet. He prefers to take medications for his condition and eat what he feels to eat. He monitors his vitals every day at least 3 times - so he will take medication to suit and make some adjustments to his diet until his vital readings go back to within acceptable range. Then back to eating his food as normal.but it must be noted that the amount of food that he now eats is a lot less than 5 years ago.and also he no longer eats heavy at nights. Well to each his own. He is happy ! He really looks forward to the casino where he meets other people , eats , drinks , can win a little money sometimes and really really enjoys it , when they call his name for a special prize. I am learning a lot from him as i am now in my 50s . However i am watching what i eat , so hopefully i would not get diabetes , high blood pressure etc.--- And its true about older women in the work place.older women are pushed aside and the younger women are given front positions and treated much better.they forget all that we older women have contributed to a company and can still contribute with our experience, skills , know how , qualifcations etc Most older women are physically able to keep up with their job.they should be given any relevant training and should be given a chance to prove herself before being pushed out or behind. All most companies want are the younger faces. I have seen the delight in the managers face at my company when they introduce a young female assistant and the slight disgust and shame when they introduce an older woman assistant.they want to hide us with the cabinets-lol. I am age proud! and will continue to be so. Wow-i got that off my chest.

How blessed you are with parents like this... I pray they live many more happy years . . . even decades 🙏🏼🌞. They sound like fun ... Workplace shenanigans are draining for older people sometimes. That's why it's important to do what you love --which also helps keep a person young. Personally, I try to keep young people around me cuz it keeps me up to date, as it were, lol. I find that, once they get used to be, lol, they come to me, like I'm their cool auntie ... And, they're quite protective of me 💕🌞
