How to Find Your Bliss at 60+

Biking at 60+

I am 60+ years old. I love my life at this age. This is the time when we baby Boomers can enjoy all there is to offer in life without restraint. When I say without restraint, I mean there are no children to care for. Some of us are single either by way of divorce or widowhood. Some of us are retired. Life at this stage is a blissful state of being if you’ll allow yourself to live in the moment.

How do you enter this blissful state? For me it’s doing the things I enjoy. For example, I love riding my bike, so I hooked up with a group of like-minded people on Meetup.com that enjoy bike riding. I like horseback riding. I found a horse stable that offered horseback riding lessons and I took them. I also like to travel. I just came back from a solo trip to Tybee, Island.

The point is being 60 years old and above is a great age to explore and enjoy life to its fullest. There are so many things you can do to find pleasure in life. Why not go for a walk in the park or go to a museum on the days they offer free entry. You can also join a meetup group in your area. There are hundreds of interesting groups you can take part in. Just go to meetup.com

and search for a topic of interest in your area of the country. I belong to six groups.

So why are you waiting to live your best life. The time is now to do the things you’ve always wanted to do. Life at 60+ is so much fun. Try it you will surly like it.
