Sure, Hiroko, 58, is worried about her husband s high blood pressure, while Nisaburo, 60, promises his wife that if she loses 18 pounds theyll take a trip abroad. What makes the Ohatas differe

27、nt is how they met, through a matchmaking organization for single seniors. “On the second date, he asked if I wanted to meet his family,“ says Hiroko. “I took that as a proposal. “ A little rushed, perhaps, but 17 years after his wife s death, Nisaburo knew he d found a new wife. The couple just cel

28、ebrated four years of marital happiness last month. In the past, people like Nisaburo and Hiroko might have chosen to live out their lives alone.

29、d nearly five times more women in their 60s and 70s married for at least the second time, compared with 20 years before. Granted, change is slow.

30、often need help meeting prospective mates. That s where specialized matchmaking services such as Ai Senior “Love Senior“ come in. When Shunichi Ikeda started the online service three years ago, he was surprised by how many visits he was getting from people in their 60s. Ikeda says that his clients h

31、ave an “American perspective“ about the dating scene. And their children are often very supportive, sometimes being the ones to register parents. “More older people are realizing that life is supposed to be enjoyable not lonely,“ says Ikeda. About 17% of the matchmaking clients in Japan are over 50

32、years old, according to Ai Senior, and seniors market share has more than doubled over the past three years. “For older, single men, even doing laundry or cooking is difficult,“ says Ikeda. “They want to live with a woman.

37、help your children learn to dream big is to ensure that your own dreams don t get pushed aside by everyday demands. Our everyday experiences provide learning opportunities. When you tap into them, you create a lifelong learning habit that will always keep you growing. Even your most disappointing ex

38、periences can be turned into breakthroughs. Every dream begins in the imagination. Take a few minutes to sit down with a notebook and think about where you would like to be in 20 years. Write down details about all aspects of your ideal life. Feel free to imagine. Dont worry about whether vou know h

39、ow to get there now you have 20 years to figure that out. You can also start by picking a year in the future and making a collection of things you d like in your life by then. Check in on it from time to time to see where you ve made progress. We re often encouraged to work on our weaknesses, but wo

40、rking on your strengths is easier and creates better results. For help of identifying them, ask some friends, or colleagues to write down what they most appreciate about you. Theyll enjoy doing this, and youll feel great when you read the responses. Once you know your strengths, you can put them to

41、work to help you achieve your dreams. Confidence is the foundation for all your other abilities. “Progress, not perfection“ is a great saying to keep your confidence high. Every night, write down five achievements that happened that day. Big or small, it doesn t matter. If proper, add ideas for furt

42、her progress and actions you can take to get started. Find ways to add what you love to do to your life now. This will give you more energy and keep you connected with your bigger dreams.
