I found the pictures from 60 years ago to be somewhat heartbreaking although when I lived in Bangalore it was very different (80-97). I suppose nothing is permanent. <BR/><BR/>I think its great that so many people blog, it probably makes them (including me) more tolerable as a person as they've gotten rid of the (perhaps) unappealing thoughts on their blog :)Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16634224949017222788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795920124734881705.post-32111393540910703732007-09-06T00:08:00.000+05:302007-09-06T00:08:00.000+05:30Thank you, Maddy.

Besides combining the best of active and passive thinking to keep one's mind sharp, it is a godsend for friendship.<BR/><BR/>As we get older, our social circles shrink. After retirement, we don't have the daily camaraderie of work colleagues. Families may live far away. Old friends die. And perhaps in time, it is not so easy to get out and about as we once did.<BR/><BR/>Real friendships form among bloggers, as strong over time as in-person friendships. And with blogging, one's new friends might be anywhere in the world.<BR/><BR/>I've been blogging about what it's like to get old for four years. I keep a blogroll of elderbloggers that has now reached a total of nearly 240 - people age 50 and older who blog and as discovering your blog and others you link to, obviously there are hundreds if not thousands I haven't discovered yet.<BR/><BR/>I've helped dozens of elders get started blogging and there is not one whose life has not improved immeasurably on many levels.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795920124734881705.post-14440027439303728312007-09-04T19:09:00.000+05:302007-09-04T19:09:00.000+05:30Eric,in response to my post, writes about a 107-ye...Eric,in response to <A HREF="http://desicritics.org/2007/08/07/080409.php" REL="nofollow">my post</A>, writes about a 107-year-old Australian who calls her blog a <A HREF="http://www.allaboutolive.com.au/" REL="nofollow">'blob'</A>. <BR/>And then we have a mumbai girl, <A HREF="http://anandimumbai.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">Anandi</A>,75, who's figures in MBP <A HREF="http://mysoreblogpark.blogspot.com/search/label/Blog-of-the-day" REL="nofollow">blog-of-the-day</A>.<BR/>Too many links?GVKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17350402171842472556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7795920124734881705.post-84086611223097618062007-09-04T14:34:00.000+05:302007-09-04T14:34:00.000+05:30my case it helped to recover a damaged portion of ...my case it helped to recover a damaged portion of my brain.My alma mater blogs had inputs which helped to recall events and people which had vanished into a blackness.<BR/><BR/>I found that a short absence during July and August of this year made the return to blogging a real joy.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the kudos, but I am nowhere near your standard in writing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
