“Moving Parts Don’t Rust”

Health is more than just physical; it's a mindset.

Sometimes, however, our mindset can become limiting. We might feel constrained by notions of aging or believe that certain opportunities have passed us by due to perceived limitations.

Society and even medical professionals can inadvertently reinforce these beliefs.

I recall visiting a Rheumatologist in my early forties due to joint pain, particularly in my knees and elbows. While I suspected a possible tick bite (which was later confirmed), my doctor remarked,

"Well, you are getting older. Aches and pains are part of the aging process."

This statement felt disheartening and somewhat insulting, as age shouldn't dictate our capabilities or define our potential.

Everyone starts at a baseline, and with the right commitment, one can embark on new endeavors at any age.
