Hi all who've posted. Change can be scary at any age. People say you're never too old to learn, that's true but learning and changing means you have to adapt. If you have no-one to help with transition it's stepping outside the square you have lived in all your life. I don't think age really comes into it as education is more the issue. Radical changes, like employment, relocating living can be frightening, but again, support and being comfortable in you that what you're doing is right for you is where your strength comes into being. I had to start work again at the age of 64, to say I was petrified is putting it mildly. However, 15 months later, I'm still working and enjoying it. Okay, it's voluntary, but I'm still doing something for someone else.
