Expert Solution
Introduction

Ageing is not something that is seen in a negative manner, like for example many old people start counting days of nering their death when they start ageing, in such cases they tend to lose interest from their lives at present times only. Therepfre being healthy is more important rather than ageing.

Gerontologists say that ageing can lead to gaining of more experiences and its just a number because numbers cannot determine the lifestyle and our way of enjoying our lives, be it at any age or point in time. Thus, ageing is a part of our biological lifecycle and we need to have an optimistic outlook towards it.
