"Aging is associated with increased levels of emotional well being". Stanford University
This may seem odd, as we all have known older people who spend great amounts of time complaining, but the research indicates that as we age, we enjoy more emotional well-being. It makes sense. As we mature, gone are the emotional dramas that seem to accompany the younger ages. We seem to have our priorities more clearly in mind. Little things may not bother us as much as they used to. We may no longer put an emphasis on achievement. We may have more time for creative expression, with the children raised, and we may have more freedom from work schedules. Whatever the reasons, the research is clear: we are happier as we grow older. What are your happy about right now in your life?
