Which one of the followings is best described middle adults?

a) most individuals focus on becoming more physically fit and developing into healthy, energetic older adults

b) adults revise their physical self-images, placing less emphasis on feared declines and more on hoped-for gains.

c) some individuals notice an older body, but few experience life-threatening health episodes.

d) adults become conscious of aging as their time orientation changes from “years since birth” to “years left to live.”

@Manda19,
Young people worry about getting older. Old people worry about not getting older.

That's a clue.

D! Definitely D! I've only got a decade or so to wait now!

I am worried about money not spent before it's over though :-)

@Manda19,
I've come to look at longevity a bit differently. That's because I'm now 81 years old, and have seen too many die at a young age. It also depends on where one lives. There are huge differences even within one city such as Chicago, where I have lived in the past.
I've come to believe that when our time comes, there's not much we can do to change it.
We see people survive plane crashes, while others meet their maker.
