Time Enough for Life: Growing Older Gracefully - Yemi Ladipo - Bog

In this timely new book, Yemi Ladipo argues that the keys to growing older gracefully reside in qualities that seem counterintuitive in our modern world. Instead of constantly seeking to take back control, we need to cooperate with the ageing process. Our bodies' senescence is not a design defect but a necessary feature of our humanity. While Dylan Thomas adjures that "old age should burn and rave at close of day", Yemi proposes something different. We should burn not with rage and resentment but with faith, gratitude and a determination to pass the torch to the next generation.
