When we are young, we want to look older.
And when we are old, we want to look younger.
And there is a window in the middle of it all when we’re supposed to look as we wish.
But we waste that time wishing we were taller or thinner or curvier, our hair was longer or shinier, curlier, parts of our body were firmer and perkier and we’d started to use anti-wrinkle cream earlier.
And by the time we realize we were perfect just as we were, the window has closed. It's too late.
Too late to realize that all those things never really mattered in the first place.
But it’s never too late to start letting go.
To stop wanting, stop wishing.
It’s never too late to accept yourself.
To look in the mirror and realize that all along, you never needed to look older or younger or anything else.
You just needed to look like you. Author: Haley Drew Thisdale

Welcome to Golden Funky!

This is a vibrant community for those aged 55 and older to connect, share interests, and uplift one another.

Here, we encourage meaningful conversations about hobbies, passions, and coping strategies to combat loneliness.

Whether you want to chat, organize get-togethers, or share how you stay active and engaged, this is the place for you! Let’s celebrate life, embrace new experiences, and support each other in creating a joyful and fulfilling lifestyle.

Join us for fun discussions, inspiring stories, and a sense of belonging!

While we want to minimize negativity, we understand that everyone has frustrations and hardships. We will have designated days to share and vent our feelings, but these sessions will be brief.

Afterward, we’ll focus on uplifting conversations that everyone can look forward to.

Please, no advertisements! If you notice anything suspicious or if someone younger tries to influence our community, report it to the admin. Let’s keep this page safe from scammers and fishing schemes.

Together, we can brighten each other’s days!
