Default How do members in the sixties keep their sanity?

I recognize that Church attendance is a bit akin to exercise and eating, you do it een though sometimes you are full, not hungry, wishing for variety.

However, once your kids are not the center of attention, does one go to see which one of one's friends have died?

You won't have heard a new concept for many years. I suppose it's to feel some spiritual relief, but I get more relief doing my own study, being with my own family or friends, taking the sacrament and then following my own plans.

Attending college is fun, because you have stimulating conversations, meet great looking fit girls, and have the world before you.

Does retirement look so exciting?

I suppose it can, but what to do.

See more sights, more hobbies, what else?

By then, it's a routine.

Old people go to church to talk sports. Where else would you find fellow BYU fans or oversensitive Utah fans?
