It appears to be universally understood that with age,
one cannot have the good things of life- a fit and agile body, a
sharp and intelligent mind, a passionate and involved heart.
And yet, the possibility of having these appears to have gained
more longevity with every passing decade. Not long ago, the
40s were the new 20s, while today, the 60s are the new 40s.
