I don't imagine this is really a true story, and apologies if it's been posted before, but my mum sent it to me, and I found it quite touching, so here's a link to a copy I found online:

All about how you may grow older, but don't have to grow up!

Perhaps it is made up but agree that it's a positive attitude that gives people drive to keep going and that's what older people (and younger) need. We should be enabling older people to pursue dreams and have interest in their lives. Its very easy to assume that because older people's bodies have given up that their minds have as well.

So much truth in that story. I know some fantastic ladies and gents who are 75+ and they are my role models for how to live when I am that age too.
