Want to be an elderly person in his 30s or a young person in his 90s? Increased numbers does not mean you have to stop here

The oldest young man in the world, the hottest high-end 102-year-old fashion Ariel. Epfir passed away on March 1, 2024, but the thoughts and visions she left behind have made me, who was respectful in her prosperous era, deeply inspired and benefited without any loss.

In the summer of 2023, on the occasion of her 102th birthday, she picked up the pen and started her writing plan for the World. Three hundred private photos, and beautiful fabrics from the old world artisanal file box. On the strikingly energetic paper, Eris tells about her creative works, adventure experiences, and her unwavering belief that color and creativity are indispensable elements of a beautiful life.

You can't stop living and lie there in a group.

It is important to stay busy and stay enthusiastic about what you do.

My body always has some trouble, but I am a ruthless character at the brute. It is important to stay busy. I have witnessed too many cases of —— one day after retirement, I suddenly realized how empty my life was. This is not funny at all; I should have a rest all day long, but I just think I don't have time to waste.

It is also important to be enthusiastic about what you do. I feel that I am extremely lucky, and I still have such a variety of opportunities in my twilight years: design, modeling, speaking, teaching, and traveling. If someone told me when I was young, I would be so grand in my later years, I would definitely laugh.

Even if the opportunity comes to the door, you still have to urge yourself.

I got up and urged myself to forget everything else to do things until I stopped. Then when I got home, the pain started to hurt again, but this was a very worthwhile price. You may not like getting older, but what is another option?

People cannot live in the past, because the past is gone and it is impossible to return alone.

The finale is done, and there is another error waiting for you.

I am such a person.

There are always regrets on the road of life, but what's the point of thinking more?

As you grow older, what you worry about will be different. Sometimes the itinerary is full, and I worry about whether I have the ability to do everything within time. Of course, health is also a concern. But I will stumble upon those unpleasant or sad things. I have had some regrets on the road of life, but what's the point of thinking too much? I tried my best and tried my best; I didn't do everything well, nor did I think I knew nothing. If you make a mistake, correct it and then continue to move forward.

I live in the moment. If you make a big deal about everything, you will only get exhausted both physically and mentally.

Old? I won't be chasing this thing.

Thinking too much will only make life useless.

I am very proud to live until this year——

However, seriously, even if I think of my age, it's just a little while.

Do you want to be an elderly person in his 30s or a young person in his 90s?

I am a person who looks forward, maybe this is the case, I rarely worry about it. It's not just a number, and adding numbers does not mean that you have to stop there. The point is the way you look at things, I only know the 30-year-old and the 90-year-old. I do what I want to do, hoping that I can get up in the morning and do things. Just like what I love, "I'm upright!" —— it's still a blessing. Maintaining health is the most important thing, because without health, you can't do anything.

As sure, I can't help but feel shocked during the process of getting old. But who can never grow old? I feel very lucky to live to know this today. Thank you for every age you have lived. Even if the body does not listen to the slogan at first, it still has to continue to move forward and build the method to hold on. Let me borrow an old friend from the words: "If you have any body parts or organs that are doubled, 80% or more of them will have a pain when you wake up." I have done two symptom surgery myself.

Don't miss it. Of course, I think it's great to lie in bed. But you have to get up. Aging is a matter of fact. If you want to keep your brain busy, your body will not hurt so much.
