When Time Becomes a Gift, Not a Thief
What if everything we've been told about aging is wrong? We've absorbed a cultural narrative of inevitable decline-forgetting names, losing sharpness, becoming irrelevant. Yet consider Julia "Hurricane" Hawkins, who took up competitive cycling at seventy-five and at 103 won gold medals in sprinting. Or George Augspurger, who at eighty-seven could tune a recording studio with precision that defied his age-related hearing loss. These aren't miraculous exceptions. They're glimpses of what's possible when we understand that aging isn't a disease to survive but a developmental stage with unique advantages. The brain you have at seventy isn't a broken version of your twenty-year-old mind-it's fundamentally different, reorganized by decades of experience into something potentially more powerful. While processing speed slows, pattern recognition deepens. While learning new information takes longer, wisdom emerges. The question isn't whether your brain will change with age-it will. The question is whether those changes represent loss or transformation.
