Thoughts on friendships as you age?
My 70year old parents are active and healthy for people their age. One thing they’ve noticed is that their dear friends/peers who have shared so many meaningful parts of their life are either unable or uninterested in doing active things with them (kayaking, sailing, hiking, pickle ball, etc). This means that when they see each other, they just sit around and talk. When my dad retired and they were able to spend 5 months of the year in Tobermory, CA the friends they made there were all 10 years younger. I am in my early 40’s and this has got me thinking about the importance of having friends of all different ages. I’d love to hear Peter’s thoughts on this.
