Is Everyone Aging? Does everyone think about getting old? I think it’s scary to age because of health reasons. Aging is scary because it can get people closer to death. I’m scared to age because it changes everyone's looks even mine. Aging is bad because anyone can lose friends over time and family members because of aging. First of all, I think it’s scary to age because of health reasons. Health is a really big thing when someone is getting old. When aging many people have back problems and it affects them getting around. I don’t want pain in my body twenty four seven. When people get old they get arthritis because it makes people weak. Furthermore, I don’t want to grow up. I don’t want to grow up because responsibilities is big task.
Society is big on staying and looking young. People are constantly working out, watching what they eat, and getting surgeries such as botox and breast augmentation. Our society is too concerned on looking youthful. Morrie had aging in better perspective, "The young are not wise, they have very little understanding about life. Who wants to live every day when you don't know what's going on? When people are manipulating you, telling you to buy this perfume and you'll be beautiful, or this pair of jeans and you'll be sexy It's very simple. As you grow you learn more. If you'd stayed at twenty-two, you'd always be ignorant as you were at twenty-two. Aging is not just decay, it's growth." Aging is more than the negative that you're going to die, it's also the positive that you understand you're going to die and that you live a better life because of it.
When it comes to aging, there are some positive aspects and negative aspects. The negative aspect of aging that I would want to avoid is having fragile bones, brittle hair and skin, and possible memory loss. The older a person gets the more their body tends to wear out and it becomes difficult to do activities because their body is not how it used to be. I would not want my bones to act and I wouldn’t want a hunch back either. I feel like my life would be miserable if my skeletal system was in pain most of the time. Next, when an individual becomes older, their skin and hair becomes brittle and them being old, they cannot maintain it. My skin is already sensitive, so I can only imagine how it be when I get older. Seniors skin tend to look loose and gets very delicate. The older you get, skin tears more often than usually. To add, my hair is very important to me and I spend so much time on it. I know growing old can cause your hair to be fragile. Furthermore, memory loss is suffered from a lot of seniors and

Our culture likes to ignore that everyone has sex for pleasure in some form or fashion. Created and preached has been a hard-fast narrative that sex only equals intercourse, and intercourse is only reserved for procreation or for the enjoyment of the young and beautiful, which very quickly begins to limit our understanding of the needs of those not using or falling into these realms, young or old. Consider that the young will age, the beauty will fade and procreation not forever possible. Things we cannot control will happen physically, causing our bodies to not be able to operate in ways that we once enjoyed, but that should not make us abstinent against our will. While some natural physical
“The term ‘aging out’ refers to children within a state’s foster care system who are still in the system upon reaching the age of majority or when they have graduated from high school” (Craft, 2017, Aging Out). Many of these children “have not found permanency with an adoptive family … or they have not been able to return to their biological parents” (Craft, 2017, Aging Out). A child typically ages out at 18 years, “but some states have extended services beyond this age because so many young adults are just not ready to be thrust out into the world on their own at such a young age” (Craft, 2017, Aging Out). If a foster parent chooses to continue parenting the foster child once they have aged out of the system, they are able to as long as the foster youth is okay with this. If an individual continues fostering a child, they will no longer receive money from the state.
One of the negative aspects of the human condition is aging. Most people do not look forward to aging like myself. I am not afraid of getting old, but before I do, I want to reach the goals that I have set for myself. Candide also seems

12. Aging from young to old can be very miserable at times because there are many struggles we face, our feelings towards failure, and our sense that life is miserable.
Aging comes naturally and people should not be frighten be it. As it turns out the fear of this process is enough to speed it up. The negative attitude is a very powerful factor in this process and has a great effect on the physical aspect of aging. It is enough to put people into deep depression or lose their confidence with many other things like good posture. On the other hand maintaining a positive thinking can really slow the process down. In fact it can do miracles, regular exercises and healthy diet can bring new life. Often people feel threatened by aging and put a hold on their lives, while they should be constantly evolving as they go through life. With positive thinking, it is all possible.

Like most people in American society and culture, when I hear the term aging it is almost always thought of negatively. Americans have become obsessed with finding ways to live a longer and healthier life and when one of those people here the term ‘aging’ it is viewed as a detriment to their thought of living longer. It is often a scary thought because people assume that the best years of their life are behind them. I personally do not feel physically as old as I do mentally. I am weary, however, as life goes on that my body will eventually catch up to my mind. I hope however that I can be healthy all around at an older age because I would hate to be ill and not be able to enjoy life at its greatest potential. I believe that most people, including myself, have the perception that aging limits your mobility. People often assume that the once you get to a certain age you will be limited to where you can live and must be forced into a retirement home. This perception more than likely is false, and perhaps coming from individuals that have seen loved ones not being cared for and have taken a similar path. This perception most likely comes from observation of adults telling younger ones by word of mouth however untrue it may be.

Old age is still an unacceptable physiological process, which cannot be delay until a future time, undecided and indefinitely.
