35 This is Our Time – by Barbara Heagy When I joined the local Seniors Centre after retirement, I met many new women and men through the local clubs and activities. This is a place for strong, vital people who want the stimulation and surprises an active life still offers to those who seek it. They are interested and interesting. The women are feisty. I put it down to having a lifetime of succumbing to others’ needs and demands, always playing second fiddle, and denying their own requirements and desires. Now, at this time of their life, they find themselves released from all those pressures and they aren’t going to do it anymore. This is a time for them. The men seem chilled, calm. Perhaps they too, are tired of life’s demands on them to support, guide, lead, be the boss, the one in charge. They are glad to release the reins of power to another. This is a time for them. Our twilight years offer us a freedom from all the duties and obligations we have had for most of our lives. Children are grown, the nest is empty, jobs are complete, retirement beckons. This is a time for us, a time for women and men to live their best lives. We still have time. The Sentinel - April 2023
