The Invisible Seniors, Podcast

You become the person you hated

Ever think that person at the office or in the neighborhood could ever be you, later on in life? Sometimes we find out we are our father or mother as we age. The dislikes or favorite things that were once theirs is now ours as well. The reactions, habits or mere opinions are not the appropriate or yours anymore.
Life changes everything and with age we become different people therefore learn to accept and let things go.

Don’t let old failures define you

In some manner move on from the past mistakes. The most important part of recovery of any sort is your mental outlook going forward. You are the most important concern and the rest can get in line. Don’t allow yourself to be defeated gather strength in anything or the people you know you can trust to put some steel back in your backbone. Move slowly but with a purpose to find that positive view from your mountain. 
Remember memories can be beautiful but also poisonous if we let them become stagnate in still waters gathered around our brain.

Sex Pistols are senior citizens

Say it isn’t so, time has claimed another stage of our lives as we grow older. We realize father time captures us all whatever we thought about the old days, we all are gathered up at the end of the journey. Listen to this episode and hear Mr. Glen Matlock recall the bitter sweet side of being labeled a member of the Sex Pistols the most iconic punk band of our generation. Glen is much more than a loud, screaming band and his life after the Pistols can show his skills and long-life within the music industry. 
We had many technical problems that day and besides not seeing each other at times he was interrupted at one point. I still enjoyed meeting Glen and his keen sense of humor is lighthearted and quite fun.

Senior citizens are afraid of this world today

How do we protect the seniors? These are days of uncertain futures and we have no control. It seems as though the senior citizens again have no voice to be heard about the changes or the directions that are being made. When there is no one around can you protect yourself? Can you be strong enough to determine the real and the unreal? Is the wall you have built around your mental health strong enough to survive these days? 
Everyday problems that are magnified on top of daily struggles with too many changes at once or even needed. We find ourselves trying to keep calm but with everyday comes another problem or issue to deal with. We are forced into our own “safe-space” even if that means between our ears, to live in the past and not watch the news.
 

Are you the easy touch?

Do you cave easily? Are you the soft touch for everyone else? Is it your tendency to give in before standing your ground?
Don’t become aggressive but stand firm with your feelings and thoughts in all aspects of your life. Just because you get older doesn't mean you have to become weaker and always easy to manipulate. On the other hand don’t become that old person that just complains. Are you an easy mark for telemarketers, salespeople or charities?
Examine your interactions with friends and family where do you stand in the “dog syndrome”.

How easy it is to slip into the habit and dark comfort of alcohol

If you find yourself depressed, lonely, aging alone, isolated are simply bored the alcohol is your silent and demonic friend. It appears as an easy way to avoid reality until it turns on you in a very real way with long term and even deadly results.
Take care as a senior citizen or anyone else to watch out for the easy access to brief relief from your issues dealing with everything from financial to relationships woes.
 

Mistakes we make

We as people with many faults find ourselves trying to see the future and the potential of those that demand attention and seek to use their looks, money or any other asset to be the whole reason for success. However does this always translate into a successful life and future?
We also find ourselves not listening to the point of even replying before we hear th entire statement or discussion. Is this you?
Learn to listen

Are you escaping into your thin skinned secure bubble?

All of us seek a quiet and secure place as we become more anxious, depressed and saddened during our elderly years. What and where is your “safe place”? Are you living within a lie or have you avoided reality?
Also hear from a concerned citizen about senior citizens driving. Are you still driving?

A salute to the hard-working “blue collar” tradespeople.

With a glimpse around you see who is not worried about their jobs? The everyday worker or service worker we fail to appreciate until there is an emergency or need. Before choosing college courses you might want to consider a trade such as plumbing, electrician and see the potential income. No matter what you do in life there will always be a need for repair, replacement or install of some sort and at some level.
We salute the hands-on workers!
