The Invisible Seniors, Podcast
At some point you will be pushed into a segment of society I call “Invisible”. This will affect all of us just at different ages and times in our lives as we become unproductive, lacking motivation and falling into depression.
Episodes
Our old friend Boris Chaney talks about the illegal immigration debacle and the effect it has on the senior citizens in his neighborhood. Not just a local problem but a real national problem brought closer to home for discussion.
Think before we act on major decisions, might be lesson we have learned!
First of all don’t get addicted to the news or YouTube versions of the news!
Secondly don’t forget the ones that never forgot you, visit the elderly!
Find a way to convey your feelings.
Ever think that person at the office or in the neighborhood could ever be you, later on in life? Sometimes we find out we are our father or mother as we age. The dislikes or favorite things that were once theirs is now ours as well. The reactions, habits or mere opinions are not the appropriate or yours anymore.
Life changes everything and with age we become different people therefore learn to accept and let things go.
In some manner move on from the past mistakes. The most important part of recovery of any sort is your mental outlook going forward. You are the most important concern and the rest can get in line. Don’t allow yourself to be defeated gather strength in anything or the people you know you can trust to put some steel back in your backbone. Move slowly but with a purpose to find that positive view from your mountain.
Remember memorie...
Say it isn’t so, time has claimed another stage of our lives as we grow older. We realize father time captures us all whatever we thought about the old days, we all are gathered up at the end of the journey. Listen to this episode and hear Mr. Glen Matlock recall the bitter sweet side of being labeled a member of the Sex Pistols the most iconic punk band of our generation. Glen is much more than a loud, screaming band and his life ...
How do we protect the seniors? These are days of uncertain futures and we have no control. It seems as though the senior citizens again have no voice to be heard about the changes or the directions that are being made. When there is no one around can you protect yourself? Can you be strong enough to determine the real and the unreal? Is the wall you have built around your mental health strong enough to survive these days?
Everyday...
Do you cave easily? Are you the soft touch for everyone else? Is it your tendency to give in before standing your ground?
Don’t become aggressive but stand firm with your feelings and thoughts in all aspects of your life. Just because you get older doesn't mean you have to become weaker and always easy to manipulate. On the other hand don’t become that old person that just complains. Are you an easy mark for telemarketers, salespeo...
If you find yourself depressed, lonely, aging alone, isolated are simply bored the alcohol is your silent and demonic friend. It appears as an easy way to avoid reality until it turns on you in a very real way with long term and even deadly results.
Take care as a senior citizen or anyone else to watch out for the easy access to brief relief from your issues dealing with everything from financial to relationships woes.
We as people with many faults find ourselves trying to see the future and the potential of those that demand attention and seek to use their looks, money or any other asset to be the whole reason for success. However does this always translate into a successful life and future?
We also find ourselves not listening to the point of even replying before we hear th entire statement or discussion. Is this you?
Learn to listen
All of us seek a quiet and secure place as we become more anxious, depressed and saddened during our elderly years. What and where is your “safe place”? Are you living within a lie or have you avoided reality?
Also hear from a concerned citizen about senior citizens driving. Are you still driving?
With a glimpse around you see who is not worried about their jobs? The everyday worker or service worker we fail to appreciate until there is an emergency or need. Before choosing college courses you might want to consider a trade such as plumbing, electrician and see the potential income. No matter what you do in life there will always be a need for repair, replacement or install of some sort and at some level.
We salute the hands...
What do you think about this current world and are you concerned about getting your medications as a senior citizen?
Please share your thoughts.
Take a minute and think is this country unravelling? Have we dismantled too much, too fast without a real plan? Gold Cards with a $5mil price tag?
OOPS! we fired the wrong people?
The mental insecurity of our seniors.
A conversation with J.T.
Author Anthony Bentivegna provides in part 2 in his interview details about his book and his relationship with Seals and Crofts. A match seemingly made in heaven for an biographer that loves music and specifically the music of this magical duet.
Learn about where they went and why they chose to walk away.
This is the approved biography of the due, Seals and Crofts with such hits as Summer Breeze, Diamond Girl, We may never pass this way again, Hummingbird and so many more.
They seemed to have vanished but their music lives on!
Please enjoy part 1 of this 2 part story from Anthony Bentivegna.
Remember the Alice Cooper band? Dennis is the bass player and at the age of 78 he is still very active, productive and all about living.
He may not be “Eighteen” any longer but take a listen with your spirit and ears.
Enjoy a day away from the daily grind of being old.
Getting ready to retire or at least thinking about it? Take a listen while you are relaxing, driving or have a few minutes.
Also reaching out to you the listener.
Trying to find a senior citizen from the “van-lifers” community.
Listen and remember the first time or last time you heard the wonderful voice of Gordon Lightfoot. Hard to find another voice like his and after his death in 2023 I wanted to share this story and back-story of his rise to legend with the help of Mr. Richard Harison as his manager and friend during the most important years of his career and the music that will never be forgotten.
Just a few things to catch up on and get your opinions. With a suggestion to consider to those with back problems, the state of Department of Education and the lack of “Customer Service”.
As senior citizens we ask ourselves everyday why is everything harder?
