Getting old? Is it the ageing process or getting bewildered with the changing values of society?
when we begin life, we have dreams to fulfil. as we grow old, we realise the world is moving too fast for us and we end up being labelled as 'old-fashioned'.

Age is an issue of mind over matter.
If you dont mind - it doesn't matter.

Hello,
It shouldn't have to be that way. Times change fast in this day and age so to keep your happiness and sanity, you do not need to be the first to change your cloths through to your ways and customs but you need not be the last. Expand the age group of your friends and keep active all the time.
Times sure changed for me. When I was a kid most maps of the world were covered with pink and blue; lol Father Knows Best and Long John Silver were my favorite shows.
Cheers,

Values of life is a rule by which all age groups should live,
unfortunately as times change those issues change as well!
thus considered as "Old Fashioned"! but in reality it is
people who change their values not the rule, it's all according
to what we learned along the way. To me! "Old Fashioned" is
just an adjective used as an excuse to be promiscuous.
I am as hip as can be! but still old fashioned with my views.

When your young you lack wisdom when your old you lack
the youth to live that wisdom so as to get it right the second
time around and circumvent the grief . . .
Thruth is there is no happy medium, every body thinks
there time was the best time in life, hang in there young
people you'll get your turn at getting old and B***hing
about your kids and there friends and how awfule things
have gotten, that's the one thing in life that is fair . . .
like desth and taxes, every one get's a shot at be old and
cranky . . . so enjoy it when it comes after all, we only
go around once . . . lol

i think most elderly ppl are shocked at rapidly eroding values, lose of integrity of character and breaking social fabric of family.
i feel they feel lonely and cant understand why ppl have to bbe so cruel to others and dump their values all together.
