Download Love, Again: The Wisdom of Unexpected Romance AudioBook Free
In Love, Again, Eve Pell superbly and thoughtfully concludes that life experience contributes sizes to the artwork of interconnection - and that people all stand to learn something from unforeseen romance. Just how do old people meet new loves? Eve Pell was 68 when she persuaded a friend to create her up with Sam Hirabayashi. Ten years her older, Sam, a fellow runner, was handsome and great. Soon Eve and Sam were plunged into a giddy love that started with a movie date. "It was crazy," Pell creates. "It was wonderful." Pell had written about their love in a New York Times Modern Love column and received a influx of responses from people who accepted their own testimonies in hers. This thing, this late-in-life love: It's growing, it's just about everywhere, and it's really transformative. In staggering quantities, old people are meeting and falling in love - in older living facilities, in old age homes, in bars, in grocery stores, on cruise ships, on the Internet - brazenly, silently, unexpectedly. People once written off as too old for intimacy are having romances, beginning strong affairs once regarded as for the young. Part memoir, part trip to a new frontier, Love, Again is illuminating and heartwarming. Talking to poets and designers, a retired nurse and a retired mentor, environmentalists, philanthropists, and instructors - lovers whose partners' ages range from 61 to 96 - Pell reviews on their connections, from declaring hello to knowing they'd found the one, from blending routines and traditions to overcoming judgments and difficulties. These widows, widowers, divorcés, and never-marrieds start about old love versus young, the joy of love-making, and the looming shadow of mortality. At the center of this publication is wisdom: what we all can study from the experience, irrespective of age.
- Fall season deeply in love with who someone is now - not who they someday might be.
- Always be honest, but don't feel pressure to talk about everything.
- And the majority of all: The heart can continue to expand.
