June 22, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Lifestyle News
Irvine CA, June 22. “Let Life In” never fails to be controversial. Once again they jar the 50+ community with an article that goes against today’s politically correct tide.

The lead article this week is titled “Let’s face it, Over 50 Sucks!” (www.LetLifeIn.com )
Gary Geyer, the Let Life In editor-in-chief, says, “Although this article reflects only one man’s opinion (and he wishes to remain anonymous), many people over 50, boomers and seniors, feel that being 50+ may NOT be “the best time of their lives.” The media keeps telling us that we feel that it is (and it appears to be, at least on paper). The writer of the article thinks that we are being “brainwashed” into believing that it should be.”

The ‘Let Life In’ article suggests that while some who are over the age of 50 are enjoying their lives, others may feel inadequate and depressed because they don’t feel they are enjoying this part of their lives as much as they are supposed to.

“After 50, many things change: our looks, our role in the workplace, our physical condition and mental health, our families and friends The question asked is, “Has it changed for the better?”

Geyer says that the ironic part is that the article is not just a rant and does end positively. He says the writer admits that he believes in the ‘Let Life In’ philosophy – that “everything is part of life…the good, the bad and the in between and although we don’t always like it, we need to accept it all and go with the flow.”

Geyer adds, “Hey, that’s life, right?’
