Golden rules for ageing gracefully ~
1. Live in your own place to enjoy independence and privacy.
2. Hold on your bank deposits and assets with yourself or your spouse.
3. Don't depend on your children's promise to care for you when you grow old, as their priorities change with time.
4. Expand your circle of friends to include those who will outlive you.
5. Do not compare, expect nothing from others.
6. Do not meddle in the life of your children. Let them live their life - not yours.
7. Do not use 'old age' as your shield and justification to demand 'care, respect and attention'.
8. Listen to what others say but think and act independently.
9. 'Pray' but do not 'beg' even from God; seek His grace.
10. And finally DO NOT RETIRE from your life.
