Excellent NYTimes Article

Article about aging, and love. It also helps me understand why I suffer so much less from depression than I did when I was younger. My favorite quote in the article: “Young love is about wanting to be happy....Old love is about wanting someone else to be happy.”

Actually, when I first read about Sandra Day O'Connor and her husband, my first thought was: "Not only was she the first female Supreme Court justice, but now she is probably the first polyamorous one, too!" :-)

“You understand that the bad times pass, and you understand that the good times pass,” Dr. Carstensen said. “As you experience them, they’re more precious, they’re richer.”

For some reason, this makes me sad.
