My friend Mr. Oakley 👨🏼🦳 once said:
“Growing old has a way of taking things away from you. It happens gradually, like the passing of time. You lose your mobility, your mind, your motivation, and even your will to live. They slip away one at a time, or even worse, all at once. As your body ages, you become soft and slow and stiff and painful. […] Needless to say, people like this are no longer fun to be around. Maybe they have just given up.But, there is hope for those still willing to try to help themselves.“ (Oakley, 2021)
