“Especially when we’re young, it’s really easy to look at older adults and
see the loss: loss of youth, loss of mobility, loss of loved ones,” Sutin says.
“We assume that all of that loss would make older adults unhappy. It’s harder to
see the benefits of aging: feelings of pride for children and grandchildren, a
meaningful career, more confidence, wisdom. There are a lot of reasons to be
happy in older adulthood, but they may not be as visible as the losses.” When
they are, however, it turns out that happiness is one of the benefits that come
with age."
