      Biggest takeaway for me (aside from what I already know) is that you don’t have to be afraid of love not working out because hard times come and go and doors open and doors close. Everyone learns about love at their own rate I guess

      This is the God's word,
      Deuteronomy 5: 12-15: "Observe the sabbath day, to keep it holy, as Jehovah thy God commanded thee. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work; but the seventh day is a sabbath unto Jehovah thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, nor thy man-servant, nor thy maid-servant, nor thine ox, nor thine ass, nor any of thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates; that thy man-servant and thy maid-servant may rest as well as thou. And thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt, and Jehovah thy God brought thee out thence by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm: therefore Jehovah thy God commanded thee to keep the sabbath day." (ASV)
      You ain't just doing something. You're following the God's commandment.
      Genesis 2: 1-3: "And the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them. And on the seventh day God finished his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and hallowed it; because that in it he rested from all his work which God had created and made." (ASV)
      The rest is blessed by the God.
      The problem is Devil runs the world. He is lier and murderer. This is the reason why deception and violence are everywhere. This is the reason why liers and murderers feel good while righteous persons are persecuted. This is the reason why Hitler got the power, but Christ was executed as "blasphemer" and "rioter" by denunciation of clergy.
      This is the reason why the whole world is Sodom.
      That's why we've got the Gospel about the God's kingdom. Jehovah would put everything in order. The dead will be resurected and we'll meet our loved ones again! :-)

      I agree with this. I became a widow when I was 62 and decided to move back to Australia to be with my granddaughter and daughter. I was grieving but caring for my 3 year old granddaughter gave me a purpose in life and I felt freedom to live my life as I wished. In 2012 I met a man online, and we have been partners in life and love since. We dont live together but spend several days per week together. We have a loving and supportive relationships. Today we sat in the park, enjoying the sunshine and the trees around us, there was even a new Gymea flowering which we’ll watch its’ progress over the year. I think that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is very important, keep moving and eat well. I still cook and exercise 3 x times weekly at the gym . wth kettlebells. AT 82 I feel contented with my life - as the motto goes: “Have someone to love, someone who loves you, something to do every day or be responsible for and take care of yourself.”. Greetings from Australia

      In a world where everything corrupted … I know my happiness won’t be in these things at all …
      There no point lying and pretending…. How many people get married and wish they never was ( majority)
      In the Hindu tradition were a magalsutra and sindoor is so holy sign that a women is married …. No one wear it anymore in this century…
      Who are we kidding to just pretend …. Because everyone done it and I should to
      ( no I m not interested and I hope who ever had my destiny destined for … respects that marriage and kids this lifetime is not for me at all )
      I like my alone time …. I like my freedom… let me be universe
      Maybe in the next few lifetime if I come back and we’re in the golden ages of real love … then perhaps

    Wow, this made me teary-eyed. "When you take a rest, you're not being lazy. You're doing something. You're actually taking a rest."
    As one who used to get yelled at if I ever took a nap and was called lazy if I wasn't constantly doing something, I still get anxious if I think about a nap and feel like I should be doing something "productive" instead. But her simple little words just set me free. Thank you.

      ❤ my heart goes out to you. I hope that your body, your breath, your cells learn that you are ok when resting. That you are safe. That you are still a precious, valuable, lovable person when resting. It may take time and encouragement, like positive self-talk, making it extra cosy maybe with a certain scent or music or a candle, but I really hope for you that you find that peace and take it back. It was taken from you, take it back 🙏 have a good day

      I have a question that I've been wondering for years. In these past 6 years without your husband, do you feel as if you have more time though your day to work on thing for you? Do it feel the same as when women get divorced? Although I know it's different because he didn't hurt you or leave you intentionally. But the time spent being a wife I heard is not the same when you're single. In your situation it's different of course but do you feel more alive and free??? Thank you in advance if you can answer my question. I really appreciate it.

      Dr Gladys does not talk about her faith. If she were a Christian, she would. That is a concern. Where will she spend eternity? With God or without God. We are eternal beings. Without God is called hell. With God, she needs an entrance ticket. His name is Jesus. No one is perfect. We all sinned. Jesus paid the penalty for our sins. Is there any other religious leader that did that? Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but by him. A quote from the Bible. I will pray for Dr Gladys.

It always helps me to hear from someone experienced in suffering, as I’m just fighting to find the silver lining. I want to thank Gladys because what I’ve taken from her conversation is that there might be another side to this awful life for me. I struggle with the waiting. It’s been 20 years of abject cruelty & neglect & I’m now disabled & can see no way out. I have no real family or friends. There’s just me trying to make a way out of no way. Gladys is a beautiful soul who, in this moment of sorrow, is inspiring me to just hold on.
    I don’t know what’s coming…if it’ll be better or worse…but tonight, I’m trying not to give up in case tomorrow holds some hope I can’t see yet. So, Gladys, THANK YOU so very much! ❤❤❤

    Oh my. This lady is going to make me cry. Her wisdom is endless. I really felt the part about looking for the light till you find it. It’s so true! Never give up, even in your darkest times. The strength you lend others will come back to you.

    Good for her! I wish her many more happy, healthy years! Her husband did her a favor by divorcing her, which in itself gave her back her individual identity. ❤

    She the cutest woman ever. She have lived and witnessed so much and has accomplished a lot. At her age to remember that much and still have ability to speak of how we all can make life a positive way of living, is so astonishing. Her knowledge is infectious. I could listen to her chat all day.🌈☀️🥰❤️

    My Great Aunt died not so long ago and she would've been 103 this in December. She lived through so much in her life, though her smile would light up a room. Her laughter would fill a room. She never complained and loved all of us so much. She was always hopeful.

    Beautiful interview. She is so inspiring. Love the 5L reminder. Also that labour without love is a grudge, I can see that in my life so much. Time to add more love to the things I do ❤️

    Sprouht, you looked shocked that Gladys' husband found new love at 70. My mother got married again at 79! They were both widowed, had known each other for 25 years😅 but were married to others. They were adorable and so happy together! I see many who don't want another relationship. There are still people that do. And when it's unexpected, it's like one of those pleasant surprises in life that just happen. In one of your interviews, a woman said, and I'm paraphrasing, don't pay attention to lifes expiration date! I love that! The above is a great example. Love your vids. Always thought-provoking 👍💞

      I took it that he was more surprised that he left her at that age . That he gave her up to find someone else at that point in their lives together. That’s what I got from it. I could be wrong. But yes, I do believe you can find love at any age. I just don’t think that’s what he was really surprised about.

      The shock was probably leaving your wife of 46 years and 6 kids for another woman. It's not hard to believe you can fall in love at any age.

      I was just as incredulous that a man of that age would throw away stable family life for some other rando. It's one thing if you feel that life would be better alone but to leave behind stability to start over with someone else is a young fool's game...
