National Senior Citizens Day 2025
 |
By the time I turned 70 I was sure I had beaten the rap.
Far be it from me to become some old fart devoid of any value to society, but alas it did indeed finally catch up with me.
So now I just accept it and I mull through the day in this retired status regardless of how much I despise it.
Today is National Senior Citizens Day since 1988 under the auspices of President Ronald Reagan.
It is supposedly a day to recognize and appreciate the contributions of older adults and recognize those issues which affect their existence and well being.
So while I cannot speak for others I simply would like it known that I do not require anything from anyone.
I'm squeaking by as best I can.
Save your pity and good wishes for someone other than me if you don't mind.
Happy National Senior Citizens Day anyway.
