Have you ever thought about how people fight the aging process? When I think about this I think it is rather silly. We are all going to age. If we do not we die. It is that simple. It seems that people get so busy trying to recapture their youth that they lose out on the years of middle age. If you did not do a good job of taking care of yourself in your youth do a better job during the rest of your life, but this cannot become life’s focus. The people that I have observed trying to focus on their health tend to lose interest in everything else. This makes them difficult to be around because they preach healthy living and also remorse when they do not follow their own program.
My older sister has always looked younger than her years. I am often asked if she is my younger sister. She eats well and exercises regularly, she also enjoys life. She is not obsessed with the way she looks, nor does she constantly talk about healthy living. This sister and my other two sisters and I went out for drinks one evening to celebrate my oldest sister’s birthday. My sister that looks so young was reading about different drinks that were available in the bar. The card she was reading from had quite small print and the lighting was not very good in the bar. My oldest sister commented on how well she could read the small print. My sister told us that she had started wearing bifocal contact lenses and that after a period of adjustment she was able to see very well. I wear contacts and have not had to get reading glasses yet, but I know that I will need them eventually. I asked her about the bifocal contact lenses because I had heard that they were very difficult to wear. She said that she had adjusted to them very quickly. They had tried her on two different lenses one for focusing on distant vision and one for close vision, but she did not like that concept at all. She felt that with that set up she was not seeing anything very well. The bifocal contact lenses are weighted in the bottom so that they set on your eye in the correct manner. She said they were more expensive than the disposable contacts that she had been wearing for several years, but she thought the system was preferable to wearing contacts and then carrying reading glasses with her. She works in a clinic so she needs to be able to read patient’s charts as well as doctor’s orders. She did not like the idea of having to put glasses on and off to read the charts and then work with the patients. For her the bifocal contact lenses are working well and not having glasses contributes to her young looks.
