On Old Age
By
Ernest Messer
RALEIGH Old age is
revered and respected in
many counties, but attitudes
toward the elderly vary
widely. They range from
ancestor worship in some
countries to downright
disdain in others.
In American the elderly
have earned the respect of
their families and society.
Through hard work they
have acquired knowledge,
experience and abilities.
That wisdom is a national
resource.
May is Older Americans
Month and the theme of
“Aging Together” reminds
us that as a nation senior
citizens are the fastest
growing segment of the
population.
, “Aging Together” in
volves the intergenerational
approach - the meeting of
senior citizens, family
members and youth. The
theme also underscores the
idea that the support
provided to older people
today will benefit our youth
tomorrow.
Perhaps these young
people will be able to dispel
all the myths connected with
aging by the time thy reach
(lie so called golden age.
These myths prejudice tjje
thinking of many people
against the abilities and
resources of the older
population.
Some of the myths suggest
that the older worker is
more of a burden than an
asset when evidence points
to the fact that older
workers are more reliable,
less frequently absent and
more responsible in job
attitude. They also show
more care and precision in
carrying out work assign
ments.
It is also said that older
people cannot change and
they have trouble learning.
Both of these are myths.
Emotional disorders that
make elderly appear senile
can be mistaken for organic
brain disease simply
because the person is older.
Or intellectual performance
between young and old
differ because of social and
educational factors. There
is no biological - based
decline in intelligence based
on age.
Older people do not lose
their creativity. In music,
art, writing, science,
education and politics there
are those whose later years
of life can be the most
productive and rewarding.
Alexander Fleming
developed penicillin bet
ween his 60th and 70th birth
days and then went on to
develop uses of the first
antibiotics. Louis Pasteur
received acclaim for his
work while in his 60’s.
Winston ..Churchill was at
his peak in his late 60’s,
leading his country through
World War 11. There are
many more examples of
progressive, and productive
older people. During Older
Americans Month the
achievements of older
adults should be recognized
and honored. The young, the
middle aged and the elderly
can all learn from group
interaction.
After all, as a nation, as a
state, as a community, we
are all aging together.
The first representative as
sembly in America convened
atylamestown, Virginia, July
30, 1619.
