E Z I S R E P SU FE your

I L L SOCIA

By Torie Temple

B

eing social has taken on a new definition since the advent of social media. But being sociable doesn’t have to mean long hours in front of a computer screen. There are many opportunities to get out and mingle with people who have similar interests right in your neighborhood.

Here are the top 15 ways to amp up your social life today.

2

START ONLINE

For those who don’t know where to start to meet people, Meetup.com is the perfect place to browse for local groups.

Simply go to the website, pick the category that’s of interest to you, and browse all the groups that meet in your area. There are meetups of book clubs, hiking groups, and even a laughing yoga group. It’s an easy way to find people close to you who enjoy the same interests. Susan Kwasny, health and wellness director at Jewish Community Center, recommends meetup.com to anyone looking to stay connected and to find new and exciting things around town.

4

GET FIT

Humana Guidance Center on Hikes Lane provides a myriad of opportunities for seniors to stay healthy and active. Seniors do not have to be a Humana member to join in on the free classes that benefit mental and physical health as well as a chance to make friends. Join the Silver Sneakers for a workout or participate in other activities such as movie night or bingo. 502.479.6580

5

FIND SUPPORT IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD

If moving to a complex that offers a coordinator program isn’t feasible, apartment complexes also work with other programs such as Elderserve Senior Companions. This program is designed to help seniors who want to help other seniors. Companions are matched with seniors who don’t often get out to meet with other people. As a senior companion, you can provide socialization or help with daily chores like grocery shopping. Fairington Apartments is a volunteer station for the Elderserve program and matches seniors with their more vulnerable residents. www.elderserveinc.org.

TAKE A TRIP

The Jewish Community Center knows how to keep seniors in shape, entertained, and informed with many cultivated programs to suit individual needs.

“The Senior Social Club has gone to places like Brown County and the race track,” says Health and Wellness Director Susan Kwasny. “It’s a great way to meet people who are where you are.”

Seniors do not have to practice the Jewish faith to join the fun, which also includes exercise programs, technology classes, and playing a game of pickleball. jewishlouisville.org

3

VOLUNTEER

There is no better way to get active within the community than volunteering, and the Retired and Senior Volunteer Program can help you find the perfect place to lend your services. RSVP can match seniors to volunteer opportunities in Jefferson County.

Seniors will perform a minimum of four hours of service in a six-month period. https://louisvilleky.gov/government/ resilience-and-community-services/ retired-and-senior-volunteer-program-rsvp

SEE THE SERVICE COORDINATOR

Many senior income-based apartment complexes have service coordinators. “The purpose of a service coordinator is to assist residents with aging in place by securing services for them in their homes as well as reducing social isolation,” says Heather Childers, service coordinator for Fairington Apartments. Programs are set up throughout the month that residents can attend such as bingo, crafts, and exercise groups. There is also ongoing education about cooking, Medicare, and winter time blues.

SING A SONG

Clifford Kice, 88, keeps his vocal chords finely tuned for The Master’s Men choir at Southeast Christian Church.

“We meet every Sunday for at least an hour and a half,” Clifford says. “There are about 100 men in the organization, and we sing each month or every six weeks in both church services.” But the choir isn’t the only way for seniors to socialize at Southeast Christian Church. It also offers a senior church service with coffee and donuts every Thursday at 9am as well as a senior travel club that meets to plan bucket list trips.

9

JOIN THE YMCA

Joining your local YMCA could be the key to an active social life.

The Forever Young group at the Y gives seniors the opportunity to make friends through exercise programs, day trips, and luncheons. Seniors can also attend the Forever Young brunch once a month. For a calendar of events, visit your local YMCA.

12

BE ART-INSPIRED

13

The Speed Art Museum has free admission every Sunday until 2021 thanks to a generous contribution from Brown-Forman.

Tour the museum and talk art with museum goers or get a group together for a Sunday outing.

I made some new friends!

GET MOVING

Louisville Metro parks offer more than just playgrounds and picnics.

The senior services branch offers activities like dances, card games, and exercise programs. Visit the Flaget Senior Center or Wilderness Road Senior Center. https://louisvilleky.gov/ government/parks/ senior-services

11

BOND WITH YOUR PET — AND OTHERS

Celeste Vanskike, 68, says the simple activity of walking her dog can be one of her most social times. “My dog has to go out even when it’s cold,” says Celeste, “so it forces me to get out even when I don’t want to. I have a friend in my building who also has a dog, so we can walk together.” Celeste walks about two blocks and socializes with neighbors along the way.

MEET FOR COFFEE

The simple act of grabbing a cup of coffee at your neighborhood coffee shop can prove to be a great place to meet and mingle. You can meet a friend or strike up a conversation with a fellow coffee lover.

"Health is a state of complete physical, mental, and SOCIAL well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."

TRY BINGO OR LINE DANCING

Jeffersontown Senior Center has a variety of programs, events, and services for those 55 or older. From bingo and line dancing to technology classes and day trips, Jeffersontown Senior Center has a calendar full of fun. http://www.jeffersontownky. com/129/Senior-Citizens or 502.267.9112

15

FOLLOW YOUR PASSION

Kathy Lyons is an active 85-year-old who believes keeping in touch with what sparks your passion is the best way to stay social. “When you remain close to the organizations you care about, then you remain close to people who share your interests,” Kathy says. As a former English teacher, one of the organizations she has long been involved with is the English Speaking Union, where she attends monthly meetings. Also, because of her passion for environmental issues, she participates at the Institute for Healthy Air, Water, and Soil. Kathy encourages all seniors to find what they are passionate about and locate a local organization to get involved.

Lunch Plus One is a simple outing to do with a friend or a relative. This spring outing takes you to historic LaGrange, Kentucky, for a casual lunch and a shopping excursion.

Lunch Plus One

By Lucy M. Pritchett Photos by Melissa Donald

Here is a chance to explore what LaGrange has to offer.

A short 30-minute drive up I-71 from Louisville puts you right at the courthouse and village green. Keep an eye out for the trains that run right down Main Street. Toot Toot.

THE LUNCH:

One Nineteen West Main This fun restaurant has a down-home funky vibe. It offers amazing lunches ranging from fish tacos to a full Thanksgiving dinner of turkey and dressing. The walls are brightly decorated with board games: Clue, Scrabble, Parcheesi. Salads and sandwiches are also on the menu, but next time I go I really must give the smoked Gouda mac and cheese a try. Save room for the Madagascar vanilla creme brulee.

One Nineteen West Main

119 W. Main Street Hours: Mon-Sun 11:30am-8:30pm 502.222.1246 (top) These fish tacos have seared whitefish in a soft tortilla shell with lettuce, cilantro, tomatoes, shredded cheddar-jack cheese, and their Baha sauce.

It's Your Style Photos and story by Brigid Morrissey

L

ooking back at the recent winter weather invites images of interesting clothing combinations, plenty of layers, and the need for comfort in the snow and cold temperatures. On the streets, everyone tried to escape the biting wind by ducking into coffee shops, clothing stores, and local boutiques, so I followed them into the warmth.

Buz Unclebach THE LOOK: I go with comfort.

Sometimes looks, but more comfort. I like easy-going sweats or pullovers. Summer is my favorite season to dress for because I can throw on anything easy and comfortable. A pair of shorts can go with just about anything.

STYLE INSPIRATION: I get my style from newspapers or magazines.

SPECIAL CHOICES: In the winter time I love to layer. In the summertime I’m a T-shirt and shorts guy.

Claude Stephen Don Watson THE LOOK: I dress in what feels right to me. I look for something that’s a little bit different but not over-the-top crazy.

I look for a combination of color and pattern. Any blend of blue and green is my favorite.”

WHEN HE SHOPS: I don’t shop often, but when I do, it’s hard to stop. I buy one, and I flip a switch and start buying a lot more.

SHOPPING SPOTS: Shopping spots: Von Maur, Dillards, and Macy’s.

Brigid Morrissey was the inspiration behind this sketch Claude Stephen created and posted on Instagram.

The sketch is part of his one-panel-a-day challenge on Instagram.

Spring 2018 / TodaysTransitions.com

THE LOOK: I grow a beard every year. I only wear a beard during the winter. But last year I changed that. Normally I’ll grow it from November to the beginning of spring, but I just decided to hang on to it for the full year to see how it might grow out. I felt better carrying a white beard than a partially white beard.

GROOMING METHOD: I just wash it and run my hands through it, comb my beard and go.

THE ATTRACTION: Darwin and other early biologists used to have beards. They didn’t inspire me necessarily, but I’ve always enjoyed the images.

Betty Rinker THE LOOK: I get most of my clothes from vintage stores. I like the older styles better than the newer ones. The older styles all differed, not everything looked the same.

STYLING PROCESS: I just buy what I like and throw things together. I like turquoise and silver and Native American jewelry.

When I go out West I look for things like that.

WHAT WORKS (AND DOESN'T): I like things that are different. I don’t like designer names. If I’m going to advertise somebody’s stuff, I should get paid for it.

Nowadays all the girls wear the jeans with holes in them.

My grandkids do that too, but in my generation, we would throw them out rather than pay money for them.

PROBLEM: Vision

Worries

Is your vision prescription up to date but your eyes still don’t feel good? Worried that it’s something serious? Most likely technology use is the source of your problems. Dry, tired eyes and blurry vision when looking at computers and smartphones is a common symptom of digital eye strain, also known as computer vision syndrome. While certainly bothersome, eye strain is not a permanent threat to your vision and can be relieved with filtering eyeglasses.

A more serious condition, and the leading cause of vision loss among older Americans, is macular degeneration, says Dr. Aaron McNulty of Louisville Eye Center. The good news is that a healthy lifestyle and specially-formulated dietary supplements have been shown to reduce the risk of developing macular degeneration and slow its progression.

SOLUTION:

Blue Light Filtering Glasses

SOLUTION:

Lutein and Zeaxanthin Supplements

“Electronic screens are heavy on blue light, which is responsible for much of the eye strain and fatigue when using digital devices,” Dr. McNulty explains. Eyeglasses fitted with lenses that block or filter out blue light can help. These lenses look the same as regular ones and won’t change your color perception or impact your eyesight. From working on the computer to reading an article on your phone or watching TV, “blue light filtering lenses should be a part of your regular glasses” for every screen you look at throughout the day, Dr. McNulty says. They are available in most prescription strengths including for reading, and you can even pick up a pair of glasses with clear, non-magnification lenses if you don’t need any vision correction.

Naturally abundant in green leafy vegetables such as spinach, kale, and collard greens as well as in other brightly colored vegetables, lutein and zeaxanthin are important antioxidants that help protect the macula — the part of the retina at the back of the eye that’s damaged by macular degeneration. While it may be possible to get enough of these and other eye-friendly nutrients from diet alone, “it’s pretty well established that if you have macular degeneration you should be on supplements,” Dr. McNulty says. Your doctor might also suggest supplements if you do not have the disease but show elevated risk factors for developing it based on test results and a review of your family history.

Where to get them: Wherever you normally purchase your eyeglasses

Where to get them: Over-the-counter, but ask your doctor for a recommendation since not all brands deliver what they promise

Cost: Varies from under $20 for non-magnification lenses to $175 and up depending on your prescription

Cost: Varies greatly depending on brand and formulation

Building a Dream

Myles Marcovitch uses the skills he learned throughout his career to maintain his model railroad in retirement.

By Myles Marcovitch Photo Patti Hartog

M

y love of trains started when my uncle, who was a mechanical engineer at the Baldwin Locomotive Works in Pennsylvania, took me for a plant visit when I was 6.

Not only did I see colossal machines building other colossal machines, but I rode in a real locomotive.

My model building started when I received my first plastic model on my eighth birthday.

I went to Michigan State to be an industrial designer, working with cars specifically. Things went awry due to my immaturity, and I ended up graduating as an industrial arts teacher. After a series of moves, I ended up being the chief learning officer for the global consumer products company, Henkel in DĂźsseldorf, Germany, from 1999-2002.

It was in Germany that I started building my current train layout. I had just gotten back into model trains in the late 1990s. I asked Henkel that if I built a train layout, would they pay to move it back to the U.S. when my assignment ended? They'd never been asked this before, but agreed. The first version, built in our German house, was 21 by 13 feet using all German lumber and Euro-style wiring. I built the layout so it would come apart and fit into our home in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, which we still owned. After returning to Pennsylvania in 2002, I was able to enlarge the layout by 6 feet, making the second version at 27 by 13 feet.

Upon my return to the U.S., I was offered early retirement so I took it and started a consulting company. I then was head of training at Toll Brothers, a large national luxury home builder. Retiring in Louisville made huge sense for many reasons, but most of 20

Spring 2018 / TodaysTransitions.com

all to be near our daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren.

The Louisville house was perfect in many ways, one of which is the expansive, open basement. It enabled me to enlarge the German layout once again to 39 by 15 feet. I hadn't built any scenery on any of the other versions, but now I was able to really get into making a model railroad, not just plywood with some tracks on it.

Model railroading uses all of the skills I have gained in my varied careers. It employs carpentry, electricity, electronics, crafts, modeling, innovation, and design. Since starting the third version, I've learned how to model in brass, build large landforms using corrugated cardboard, make masters and molds for resin casting, and design for laser-cutting. I'm in my early 70s but strive to do new things constantly and have mastered doing 3D design and renderings on my laptop. I post on various modeling forums after each building session and have a loyal following of folks from all over the world.

I impart my learnings to them and they reciprocate.

TECH TALK

By Megan M. Seckman

Throw Away the Keys With These Door Locks

L

osing your keys is a drag, we all know that. It is just one of several reasons that an electronic or wireless door locking system would help remedy the plague of perpetually lost keys. A keyless system is also beneficial for those who are often away from their homes due to work or travel. If your neighbor needs to check to see if your basement has flooded, you could remotely unlock your wireless system from an app while reclining in your beach chair. Perhaps you care for a loved one who has taken to wandering and you need a way to secure the home between caregivers. Whatever the reason may be, electronic locks may be the answer you need to simplify your life.

There are three types of electronic locks: biometric, smart locks, and keypad. Read below for the skinny on each.

Biometric

Cost: $150-$600 Overview: Door locks that use a combination of fingerprint, keypad, and/or electronic key card access.

Can store up to 100 fingerprints and use a keypad/key card for those who need access but are not in the doorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fingerprint system.

Benefits: Use of fingerprint system is best for those who often lose their keys or have multiple properties to access, making bulky keychains an albatross.

Fingerprint technology is accurate and easy, leaving nothing to remember.

Drawbacks: Programming and ease of installation is often an issue.

Definitely for the tech savvy.

24 Spring 2018 / TodaysTransitionsNow.com

Smart Locks

Cost: $150-$350 (cost corresponds with the amount of features the system offers; you get what you pay for here) Overview: These locks work from a phone app or other home smart devices like your Alexa. The wave of the future for locking systems.

Benefits: Easy to install (most reviews say it takes about 20 minutes to remove an old lock and install the new one) and use. Locks can be accessed remotely using wifi or within a 40-foot range using Bluetooth, so good for those who are frequently away from their homes.

Some locks have voice activation and added security features (i.e. camera that allows you to unlock the door from your bed once you see who is outside).

Security measures like checking your locks from your phone create peace of mind.

Drawbacks: There are so many features offered that choosing the right system may require extensive research and deliberation. One primary user is needed, so if you have many caretakers visiting your home, you will always need to stay connected in order to manage access. Not good for those who also lose their phones or are reluctant smartphone users.

Keypad

Cost: $80-$300 Overview: Door lock managed by a keypad instead of a key. Most newer systems also connect to smart home systems that enable you to open and lock doors from Google Home or Alexa.

Features such as door cameras are also available.

Benefits: Older models are good for those who want a straightforward keyless lock without the tech. If losing your keys is a problem or you have many caretakers who need to access the property, one code is easier to keep up with than a host of keys.

Drawbacks: You have to remember the code. If you have a loved one who has memory issues, this might keep them indoors and prevent wandering, but could prevent self-sufficiency in those who might forget the code.

BOOK CLUB: The Forum At Brookside Book Club

Story & Photos by Patti Hartog

Catching Up From the book:

Juliet’s statement regarding “not marrying” Adrian…

“I don’t want to be married just to be married. I can’t think of anything lonelier than spending the rest of my life with someone I can’t talk to, or worse, someone I can’t be silent with.” (Page 8)

Here’s what other area clubs are reading next:

THE FORUM AT BROOKSIDE BOOK CLUB WHEN: Every Monday WHERE: The Forum at Brookside Pavillion

Have you read this?

SUNDAY EVENING BOOK CLUB The Door

by Magda Szabo

The Forum At Brookside Book Club has been meeting for over seven years, with 20-25 residents regularly participating. The group meets in the living room in the Forum at Brookside Pavilion. Through participation in the book club, residents find opportunities to interact with one another and form new relationships. It creates a safe meeting place where people from different backgrounds, political parties, and religious denominations can freely share ideas and opinions. Discussions are led by Mark Clifford, director of recreation at The Forum. Mark shared thoughts on the group’s recent selection, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Annie Barrows and Mary Ann Shaffer.

What have you learned from this book?

Learning about the plight of the Channel Islands off the French coast of France was sobering. I had no idea what the people of these islands went through as they were occupied throughout WWII and cut off from the rest of the world. They were completely at the mercy of the Nazis and all alone. Their inspirational survival told through this book reawakened me to the horrors of war and the uncanny strength of the human spirit. This book reminded me that perseverance from generations past and what they overcame can still serve as inspiration and opportunity for those who live today.

If you could hang out with one character from the book, who would it be and why?

Dawsey Adams. He puts others before himself without exception and is a constant presence of comfort, support, and strength to many. His attributes are what I aspire to in my own life. From the beginning of the book he was my favorite and throughout I was rooting for him in all situations.

26 Spring 2018 / TodaysTransitionsNow.com

Why did you choose this book?

We wanted to read something lighthearted and fun. An epistolary novel was also something I knew would be challenging. The historical story behind the book was very interesting as well, and I felt that it would enable stimulating discussion within the group.

By book’s end the entire group had fallen in love with the characters and their story.

What genre specific titles would you recommend to people who enjoyed The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society?

The Art of Racing in the Rain (Garth Stein) A Man Called Ove (Fredrik Backman) Patrick (Stephen Lawhead) The Magic Strings of Frankie Presto (Mitch Albom) The Twelfth Angel (Og Mandino) Windows of the Soul (Ken Gire) If you would like to join one of these book clubs, send an email to BookClub@ todayspublications.com for details!

Lucy also recommends taking your loved one to Kingfish in Jeffersonville where they host big band nights once month.

Music and Lyrics Sheri Rose, CEO of Thrive Center, uses SingFit as part of music therapy.

SingFit is an app that uses music to improve mental health in seniors. “It’s socially engaging and also stimulates the neurons in the brain for memory,” Sheri says. “It also increases oxygen levels and elevates the mood level.”

“Sometimes seniors fail to eat properly; not because of insufficient nutrition or the availability of a meal, but because they are not inclined to eat alone. Socialization can be a huge part of meals, and if left alone some seniors will not eat at all.”

Beauty Sleep Becky Beanblossom, owner of Home Instead Senior Care, gives her top three ways of making sure your loved one gets better sleep.

1. Properly engage and stimulate your loved one during the day. Instead of allowing him to sleep during the day, have him burn energy so that when it is time for bed, he is ready to rest.

2. Keep a bedtime routine. If bedtime is kept about the same time each night, your loved one is likely to get a routine and rhythm that will keep his body regulated to sleeping when it is appropriate.

3. Be careful about eating and drinking before bedtime. Certain foods, caffeine, sugars, and alcohol can stimulate the body and make it more difficult for your loved one to sleep.

Meal Prep “Freeze or refrigerate prepared meal items with a use by date and reheating instructions on the label. If you suggest reheating in a microwave, be sure to use microwaveable containers.”

WHAT I KNOW NOW

Jamey Aebersold Jamey Aebersold, 78, is an internationally known jazz musician and educator. In 1967 he founded Jazz Books, a company that offers jazz Play-A-Longs, which are music books and CDs for developing improvisational skills.

Fifty years later his company is still going strong, and so is he. He lives in New Albany, Indiana.

By Lucy M. Pritchett / Photo provided by Jamey Aebersold A defining moment in your life?

I took up the saxophone when I was about 10. About that time, I read that jazz was the coming thing. I rode my bike to the record store and brought home two 78 RPM records — one by Duke Ellington and one by jazz trombonist Kid Ory. That started me on the jazz road.

How have you spread the word about jazz?

Fifty years ago we started the Summer Jazz Workshop — two one-week sessions — at the University of Louisville.

People come from all over, and we are seeing more and more older adults. We usually have about 500 people attend. Some have been coming for over 20 years. We have had participants from all over the world — China, Japan, New Zealand, England, Sweden, Canada.

What is important when working with students?

I try to tell the truth. You don't want to give them wrong information.

How do you motivate others?

Play the music for them.

Give them an explanation of this scale or this pattern.

Tell them that this is how 34

Spring 2018 / TodaysTransitions.com

Louis Armstrong played.

Listening to records of others is extremely important.

I also tell my students that I am an example of someone who doesn't smoke, drink, or do drugs. I tell them that instead of spending money on cigarettes, alcohol, or drugs, I spent my money buying records and eating healthy.

What should every man experience in his life?

Joy and happiness. I've gotten those from helping other people. I have a prison ministry, and I donate instruments to inmates.

I am a huge anti-smoking campaigner. I lost too many friends and fellow musicians to lung cancer. I put my money where my mouth is.

I pay for three anti-smoking billboards along I-65.

Cigarettes are weapons of mass destruction. There is nothing good there.

What is a non-career accomplishment you are proud of?

I never played basketball in school, maybe just a little alley ball, so I'm pretty proud of the fact that I once shot 26 three-pointers in a row along with rebounding my own ball and 53 free throws in a row.

In 2014, Jamey was awarded The National Endowment for the Arts Jazz Master Award, the nation's highest honor in jazz. He is in the International Association of Jazz Educators Hall of Fame. He was recently honored with a retrospective exhibit at the Carnegie Center for Art & History.

Who were some of your role models when you were young?

All the jazz people I was listening to. I had the enthusiasm for jazz but no direction. I was fortunate enough to be able to take private lessons from composer and teacher David Baker. He's the one who gave my music direction.

Where did you listen to live jazz?

I would go to Louisville to some of the jazz places and hear the music in its natural environment. I got to know some of the musicians making a living playing music, and it helped me to see what I could be doing. It all sounded like magic to me.

What were your plans for yourself?

I thought perhaps I’d get married and go to a disadvantaged country and show them how to get water

out of the ground for free. That idea got pushed out by music, but I originally came on the planet thinking that.

What does the average American not understand about music education?

Today they teach by the music sheet. They teach you to read music, but they don't teach that music can be a lifelong enjoyment, that it is something you can continue with your entire life and that it offers lots of returns.

How do you keep your spirits up?

I think positively. I'm interested in spirituality, and I attend a study group at Unity Church. I read a lot and try to be open-minded and tolerant. I read inspiring books and hang out with inspiring people and take my vitamins.

DEAR ME: Advice you’d give your younger self

Five Things I Would Tell My Younger Self,

Y

oung Gary, as you prepare to graduate from high school, it is a good time to provide you with advice to guide you into adulthood. I would like to share with you some things that I have learned over the years that will assist you in achieving happiness and success.

Appearance Matters The way you dress, groom, communicate, and interact with others will determine how others view you and form their initial impressions of you. I received advice a long time ago that “there is never a good reason not to look your very best.”

Developing social and interpersonal skills will pay valuable dividends in the workplace and in everyday life. As you expand your comfort zone socially, you will become more confident in your ability to excel in all types of situations.

Follow your Passion To be happy and successful you need to have passion for whom you choose to live your life with and what you will spend your life doing. This may be the most difficult 38 Spring 2018 / TodaysTransitionsNow.com

Faith and Family First.

Faith in God provides you with the inner strength necessary to face the challenges of your future. Spiritual strength gives you the ability to be comfortable with yourself and even love yourself. It is difficult to love others if you don’t love yourself.

Family is where you get love and support. All of your decisions will be directed by and with the support of family.

Gary L. Stewart

advice to follow and achieve. The most unhappy people are those who either never have that passion or are unable to find it for a lifetime partner or for an occupation.

Also your passion may change over time, but you must always pursue the passion once you have identified it.

Think Long-Term Gary, the world you are living in is becoming increasingly short-term driven.

Many decisions are being made individually and by organizations that are based on achieving instant success with negative longterm consequences. The older and wiser you become, you will

realize that a long, happy, and successful life is achieved by consistently making sound long-term decisions. You should also always be optimistic about the long-term.

Success is more likely to occur when you plan for it.

Community Service I believe that everyone has a responsibility to help others who are less fortunate than themselves.

That responsibility is even greater when you have achieved success that allows you to give back your time, talent, and financial support to your community. You are likely to receive more satisfaction from helping others than from achieving your own personal success.

With Love and Wisdom, Gary L. Stewart

Get in Tune with Yourself An Uplifting Act “It’s a myth that depression is more common in older adults. Typically, older adults report feeling happier than other age groups,” says Dr. Jesse Wright, director of the University of Louisville Depression Center and author of the book, Getting Your Life Back: The Complete Guide to Recovery from Depression.

However, if you suspect that you or someone you love is suffering from depression, take action. Dr. Wright suggests the following: talk to your physician, increase your activity level, volunteer, get a part-time job, or find some sort of creative outlet like art or music, and stay connected.

Foster relationships and utilize electronics to maintain connections. “Skyping is a great way to visit with family members who live far away,” Dr. Wright says.

A BETTER DINNER OPTION

Throw away those microwave dinners and bypass the drive-thru.

Gail Peitzmeier of Purdue University Crawford County Extension office recommends preparing your family favorites, investing in a large supply of storage containers, and freezing servings for later use. “That way you’re eating food you like and you can quickly add servings of fresh fruits and vegetables to fill out your meal,” Peitzmeier says.

Breakfast Boost

Eggs, oatmeal, and Greek yogurt are three breakfast mainstays. To make them healthier, more filling, and better tasting, “Bulk ’em up by adding spinach, peppers, and cheese to your eggs or topping your oatmeal and Greek yogurt with nuts and dried fruits like raisins and cranberries,” says Gail Peitzmeier of Purdue University Crawford County Extension office.

Adapting to Retirement If retirement is like a software upgrade, Susan Smith is on version 3.0.

Her first retirement was in the summer of 2008, when she retired as president of Family Services, Inc. in Lafayette, Indiana, where she had worked for nearly 30 years. Her husband had died in 2006, and she says, “I was 58 years old, which was too early to retire as a widow.” During a six-month break, she traveled a bit, but when a position as director of development at Purdue University opened up in October 2008, she took it. Two years later, when that position was eliminated, she moved to Louisville to care for her mother and became the executive director of GuardiaCare.

During her tenure at GuardiaCare, Susan was diagnosed with stage IV melanoma.

Although surgery was able to contain the cancer, the illness helped her figure out what she wanted to do with the rest of her life. She carefully planned for her third retirement and moved to a three-day workweek. Not only did this allow for a gradual transition for her leadership team at work, but it also allowed Susan to see how much income she really needed. She says having a budget on paper is one thing, but her part-time transition allowed her to see “what it would cost me to live the lifestyle I wanted.”

Susan had certain goals for her retirement, one of which was to exercise and stay as healthy as possible, especially given her health crisis in 2015. She also wanted to spend time with her children in Nashville, Tennessee and Leesburg, Virginia. Finally, she still hoped to make a difference in the community, which she has been able to do as a participant in Encore Louisville, a program of Leadership Louisville that allows her and other professional leaders to offer pro bono consultations to nonprofit organizations.

Retirement for Susan also means working part-time at Kroger as a ClickList shopper.

She likes the flexibility and being able to get in 10,000 steps four days a week. “I’ve never had a job where I punch a time clock or be a member of a union,” she says, proving that a person is never too old to have new experiences.

Susan is very engaged in her retirement, and some might even question whether she is retired at all, but she says she has been able to set boundaries in this stage of her life. “I’ve developed a great sense of balance in mind, body, and spirit,” she says.

Adapting to a Retirement Community At 90 years of age, Charles Brisley is adapting to a new life at Exceptional Senior Living in Prospect, Kentucky. In July 2016, he suffered a stroke and went to rehab for a couple months.

Although he returned to his home and had caregivers with Home Instead Senior Care come in a few days a week, he had his sights set on Exceptional Senior Living, which was less than two miles away. “I knew it was under construction,” he says, as a result of a friend who was planning to move in.

His apartment affords him a sitting area, bedroom, bathroom, and small kitchenette, but the community dining room provides three meals a day. Right now, the small number of residents in the center has allowed Charles to become friendly with people without feeling overwhelmed. “I try to force myself to participate,” he says.

Charles says his routine keeps him positive. “I’ve got my computer,” he says, where he manages his finances and checks email and Facebook. He also listens to fire calls on his radio system. He keeps a calendar on his bedroom door so he can see what community activities are lined up each day.

Life is not without its frustrations, even when you’re over 90.

One of his hearing aids is difficult to put in so Charles has to rely on others to assist him, but he says the staff at Exceptional Senior Living is helpful. His daughter, Lynne Benefiel, now lives in her father’s house and checks on him regularly. “I can quickly run and get him stuff. I’m blessed that I can come as much as I do,” she says.

When it comes to dealing with the frustrations, Charles doesn’t give them too much worry. “The days seem to go by pretty fast,” he says, and if things aren’t going the way he likes, he says he takes a nap. Sometimes looking at life after a rest does provide some much-needed perspective.

Adapting to the Loss of a Spouse Life sometimes throws unpleasant changes our way as we age, and we have to just muddle through as best we can. Debbie Kniss has been muddling through grief since October 2016.

Her stepson, Chad, died suddenly on October 19; her husband, Larry, who had been in declining health for a number of years, passed away just eleven days later.

Larry had experienced complete cardiac arrest five years prior to his death, and two years after that, he went into kidney failure. Long-term dialysis was wearing him down. “I didn’t want to lose him, but I knew how tired he was,” she says. She says Larry had been thinking about stopping dialysis for about a year prior to his death, but losing Chad so suddenly seemed to take the wind out of his sails. He stopped dialysis and came home with the help of Hosparus.

In the months after Chad’s and Larry’s deaths, Debbie went through a grief class at Southeast Christian Church, and she has found some happiness keeping her great-granddaughter, Zoey, three days a week. Christmas was more difficult this past year than in 2016, which Debbie says was likely because she was no longer in shock.

“I’m just getting to the stage where I’m figuring out that I have to go on,” she says. She appreciates how complicated and long grief is in a way she never understood before. She says she has apologized to many of her widow friends for not being there for them in the lonely months after everyone else has gone back to their regular lives.

46 Spring 2018 / TodaysTransitionsNow.com

Main Takeaway Living better as you age doesn’t mean that life gets easier or less complicated. Perhaps it means you take things in stride, are more forgiving of yourself, and more willingly accept help when it is offered. Whether we are adapting to retirement, a new living situation, or the death of a spouse, we learn more about ourselves with a grace that takes a little life experience to master.

Les Misérables

> PNC BROADWAY IN LOUISVILLE SERIES After a four year absence, and now with reimagined scenery inspired by the paintings of Victor Hugo, Cameron Mackintosh’s Tony-Award winning production of Les Misérables is once again touring the major cities of North America.

Set against the backdrop of 19th-century France, Les Misérables tells a timeless story of broken dreams and unrequited love, passion, sacrifice, and redemption.

Since its March 1987 Broadway debut, this production has become one of the most celebrated musicals in theatrical history and features one of the greatest scores of all time, which includes: I Dreamed A Dream, On My Own, Bring Him Home, One Day More, and Do You Hear the People Sing.

The 2012 movie version (starring Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, and Anne Hathaway) won three Academy Awards, including one for Hathaway as Best Supporting Actress.

Over the past 15 years the Arts Insider has been to four different touring productions of this musical, and she can state without hesitation that because the quality of everything connected with each production was of ‘A+’ caliber, each experience as an audience member felt like it was the first time.

Unanimous rave reviews for the current touring production include: “Thrilling, spectacular, and unforgettable.” — The New York Times “This ‘Les Miz’ is a winner. Standout cast shines in revamped production.”

— The Providence Journal WHEN: April 10-15 WHERE: The Kentucky Center TICKETS: $37-$114 CONTACT: KentuckyCenter.org, 502.584.7777, or the box office (walk up or drive thru). Groups of 10 or more, call 502.569.3060. *Recommended for ages 10+

> THE KENTUCKY CENTER Besides the overall joyous experience of hearing live the artists behind a plethora of hit singles for which this iconic American band has become known since its inception in 1961, there’s no greater thrill for the Arts Insider than to look around the theater and observe multiple generations of audience members — most of whom are on their feet, snapping their fingers, swaying back and forth to the beat, and singing along at the top of their lungs.

Today the band is captained by founding member Mike Love and Bruce Johnston, who joined The Beach Boys in 1965, replacing Glen Campbell, who had filled in for founding member BrianWilson on vocals/ bass when Wilson retired from touring. The band’s drummer is John Cowsill, who gained fame as one of The Cowsills back in the late 1960s.

With his cousin, Brian Wilson, Love wrote the classics Fun, Fun, Fun, I Get Around, Help Me Rhonda, California Girls, and the Grammynominated Good Vibrations — widely considered one of the greatest masterpieces in the history of rock ‘n’ roll. The Beach Boys are also the American group with the most Billboard Top 40 chart hits (36).

Celtic Woman: Homecoming

> LOUISVILLE PALACE Celtic Woman's repertoire encompasses Irish classics, contemporary songs, classical favorites, and stirring originals.

Named Celtic Woman to represent the essence of a Celtic female performer, the group made its American TV debut in early 2005 with its self-titled PBS concert special, which captured a soldout performance at the Helix in Dublin.

Immediately thereafter, Celtic Woman's eponymous debut CD reached #1 on Billboard's World Music Chart, where it remained until the release of Celtic Woman's second album, 2006's A Christmas Celebration, which also reached the top of the charts.

Although initially intended as a onetime-only event, Celtic Woman's music was so warmly received by the public that the group immediately followed with its first U.S. concert tour. (Original member Lisa Kelly was the Arts Insider’s interview subject the first time Celtic Woman came to Louisville).

Say 'Yes' to Life

By Bob Mueller

M

y wife and I recently discovered New Harmony, Indiana, a very spiritual place of retreat near Evansville. In New Harmony there is a statue and garden dedicated to Paul Tillich.

Paul Tillich was a highly revered German philosopher and theologian who spent the last 10 years of his life (1956-1965) as a professor at Harvard and the University of Chicago.

One of his many books was The Courage to Be, published in 1952. It’s one of those books that was required reading in the seminary and also one of those books a reader never forgets.

I like to say that Tillich’s phrase, “The Courage to Be” means “Say Yes to Life.”

The highest form of courage is saying yes to life.

Say Yes to Life seems to crystallize what ancient philosophers and sages of all faiths and cultures have been telling us for thousands of years — our life on earth has meaning and an ultimate purpose. When we come to understand that life is a balancing act between good and evil, and we work our way through the hardship and suffering that come with it, we eventually discover and appreciate the joy that surrounds us. The most basic requirement is courage.

Paul Tillich reminds us that while neither birth nor death are choices, everything in between is. And in spite of life’s many negative elements, we’re challenged to make the most of it under all circumstances. If we don’t have

the courage to do this, we’ll never find the real meaning of our lives. And we’ll never become the fully alive people we’re capable of being. Tillich says courage is the vital strength we need to rise above the hardships and sufferings of life and find something ultimately positive and meaningful.

It is courage that restores hope to the heart. In our day to day lives, we often show courage without realizing it.

However, it is only when we are afraid that courage becomes a question. Courage is amazing because it can tap into the heart of fear, taking that frightened energy and turning it toward initiative, creativity, action, and hope.

When courage comes alive, imprisoning walls become frontiers of new possibility, difficulty becomes invitation, and the heart comes into a new rhythm of trust and sureness. There are secret sources of courage inside every human heart; yet courage needs to be awakened in us. The encounter with the beautiful can bring such awakening.

Courage is a spark that can become the flame of hope, lighting new and

exciting pathways in what seem to be dead, dark landscapes.

We often equate courage with valor, bravery, gallantry, and heroism. It conjures up images of great martyrs like Joan of Arc, patriots who declared our independence and fought in the American Revolution, reformers like Mahatma Gandhi, and civil rights leaders like Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King, Jr. The courage of these people has always been honored and celebrated. It’s the best known and most admired of many types of courage. But we need to be reminded that there are other types of courage that are equally important.

One of them is the everyday courage of saying yes to life.

Life is hard, and life is often unfair, and we can expect trouble. But that doesn’t mean we have to let it defeat us.

Digging down, finding strength, and standing up to hardship can be one of the great rewards and joys of life. It takes this courage to say yes to life — the everyday kind of courage.

A well-known advice giver sums it up well:

“IF I WERE ASKED TO GIVE WHAT I CONSIDER THE SINGLE MOST USEFUL BIT OF ADVICE FOR ALL HUMANITY IT WOULD BE THIS: EXPECT TROUBLE AS AN INEVITABLE PART OF LIFE, AND WHEN IT COMES, HOLD YOUR HEAD UP HIGH, LOOK IT SQUARELY IN THE EYE, AND SAY, ‘I WILL BE BIGGER THAN YOU. YOU CANNOT DEFEAT ME.’” — Ann Landers

What is the Best Decision You Ever Made?

"To become a nurse because I learn so much about people and life in general. It has just been exceptional for the rest of my life to apply those things that I learn."

"...to marry my husband, because it's lasted 46 years."

(These agencies also provide non-medical care.) Non-medical Home Health Care agencies in Kentucky must be certified. Agencies in Indiana must be licensed. They can assist with the self-administration of medications or treatments, provide limited personal care, serve as companions who prepare light meals and tidy homes, and may offer transportation or errand services.
