Kanupriya: I agree with all that you said, except âage is just a number.â Clearly, you are still young! I was always active, vibrant, positive, and hopeful until age descended upon me, (in my 60âs) and my body rebelled against many previous activities. Now, at nearly 77, I have many aches and pains that have come from aging, and I donât have the positivity I had in my youth. It takes work, focus and mindfulness to reach contentment these days. Thankfully, I have yoga to carry me through that process, while I continue to navigate unexpected aches and pains.
