Almost 60, recent bereavements have rammed home how short and precarious life is. I don't want it to end.

How do you get your head round aging, and all it entails.

Ageing is a privilege denied to many. You’ve answered your own question!

Look up Pema Chodron’s writing/talks - might resonate. Meditation is good too for slowing down and helping you feel more in control of your time. Time expands during meditation!

Try to get out into the fresh air every day or do some exercise it's great for mental snd physical well being. Count your blessings op.

Know how you feel, we're older and the days just vanish but as someone has pointed out (and you mentioned) lots don't get to grow old. Too many of our friends have already passed, we simply try to make the most of the days.
