Happier After 50!

Catherine appeared on the Today Show this week to discuss a new study that said, you are happier in your later years than you were in the middle ... in fact the arc of happiness looks a little like a U shaped graph (or a smile!) since younger people, in their school years, through the end of college, are fairly care free, and then the stress of adult life comes to bear: money and income and career and family, the question of how to juggle it all becomes so intense that some women forget to really enjoy their 30s and 40s! Then when you are a bit older, like at 50, the uptick starts and the happiness graph moves up again, until in your 70s you are fairly happy, despite the idea that getting older is grim because of illness or loss of loved ones. You literally forget the bad things and remember the good. You stop sweating the small stuff. You appreciate your days. Your accumulated years of wisdom and emotional intelligence pay off. Here is the link... We think that if you could know now what you learned by then, you'd be happier, this very day.

Thank you for the hopeful news! I'm in my mid-40s and have noticed that my friends over 50 appear happier and overall simply more content than I, even those who have the similar challenges of running their own businesses. I've often wondered why... did they just "stop caring" at some point? But that didn't seem to be the answer. I'm happy to see that this isn't an isolated event, and that I can look forward to happier times in the future. It's good to also be aware to - hopefully - not lose happy opportunities in the meantime!

BTW - I'm afraid I came to this post a bit late... the video was expired. If you should ever have another opportunity to post a link, i would love to see the video to learn more about why or how this is happening. Thanks!!!

<P> But perhaps a more important question to ask at this point is, where is the newest colorway of the Kobe VI? It has been at least 3 weeks since a new colorway of the shoe Nike Lebron 8 has been spotted The Zoom Kobe 4 Carpe Diem sports the same signature architecture of Kobe 4 shoes- illegally low-cut ankles You might want to check out his latest par too, they're called the Kobe VI After all, the Nike shoe box that the "Dark Knight" Kobe colorways come in don't contain the words "Dark Knight" anywhere on it The Kobe VI "Draft Day", a classic all Black edition, and a Royal Blue beauty are just a few of the colorways you can now cop online for an affordable price Every fall season for the last four years has brought sneakerheads images of a new Kobe Bryant signature sneakerThe signature sneaker line of Kobe Bryant shoes has already made a huge impact on the sneaker world Del Sol is Kobe Zoom 5 also used on the Shozoku Kobe logo Perhaps if a Kobe shoe did exist in metallic gold I would just dismiss it and wish that I could get it in some other color This emergence came as Yao Ming entered the NBA years ago Excellent stability, maximum cushioning, and lightweight performance Sweet!

One of the dunks he performed in that contest will be remembered for quite some time Attaching a moniker to a shoe, whether it is a superhero, celebrity, or even a cartoon character allows us sneakerheads to do just that I guess it's time to start counting again It sported the all time record between the Lakers and C's further transcending his trash talking to his kicks While we all wait for the Kobe VII to drop there are several online retailers that have plenty of colorways of the Kobe VI that you can purchase for right around $100 He successfully performed this unbelievable dunk in a pair of Nike Hyperdunk's I guess it's time to start counting again Three times as many opportunitiesThe "base" Kobe VII will release in January 2012 and carry a $140 price tag Until this past May when I lost track They also absorb sweat to make Shoes Kobe Bryant the interior dryer An ankle will be rolled or a knee will be blown out There is no shoe on the market that has the "breathability" that a Nike Hyperfuse basketball shoe has</P><P></P>
