87-Year-Old's Viral Wisdom: 'Age is Just a Number, Stay Involved!'
An 87-year-old woman, known to her granddaughter's online audience as Aislinn Cushing's grandmother, has captivated millions with her refreshing perspective on aging, asserting that age is merely a number when approached with an active mind and spirit. In a viral video, she shares her philosophy from a dining table, stating, "I'm 87 years old. I don't feel 87. I don't think 87 what old age is supposed to be is no longer. I feel and think like I'm still 60, sometimes 50, and sometimes 22." She emphasizes the critical importance of staying involved, using one's brain, and interacting with others as key elements to a fulfilling later life. "You have to use your brain, interacting with other people, which is one of the most important things," she advises. She also highlights the need to "be involved with the world, be aware, be able to have conversations with younger people." Her message culminates in a powerful call to action: "Not be stuck in 'Oh, I'm old, it's terrible.' Screw it! Get up and move your... excuse me... your f***ing body. Take care of yourself mentally, physically, emotionally. Be a part of the world." Her candid and spirited advice resonates widely, offering a hopeful and empowering view on the aging process.
