The Art of Aging: Celebrating the Authentic Aging Self

[paulawhidden]

I appreciate your view on aging and the beauty found in the aging process. You show character we often loose. Thank you.

[essencecoach]

Absolutely fantastic, uplifting (never mind the gravity). Such beauty. Thank you from a young 62 year old.

[biobeverly]

What beautiful gifts... thank you!

[vaidotas86]

Thank you

[kwp03t]

What a beautiful video with a message that is so necessary in a world seemingly fixated on youth being the height of beauty and success. This is how I want to feel when I'm older. Thank you for this truly lovely insight.

[AFutureLegend]

Awesome video!

[singersus]

Lovely video. I appreciate your perspective very much. I am also an artist working with issues about women's body image. Two of my favorite pieces are of a 90-year-old dancer who still teaches dance!

Talk about someone who is aging gracefully!

[dolphingrouponline]

What an absolutely wonderful video -- one that needs to be seen by so many in this youth-related culture of ours. Just like Alice and Richard, I see myself constantly rediscovering myself. Even now at 58, I feel that in many ways my life has hardly begun. There is still so much yet to be discovered, explored and experienced. When one gets to the point at which that is no longer the case, then it is all over.

[WrinkleTalk]

Thank you for your wisdom. I adhere to everything that you have said in this video. Check out my channel where I also discuss aging and wrinkles.

I have always seen the beauty of the elderly. I have a deep affinity with the aged and now that I am in my late 30s, I am aware that one day, hopefully, I too will be elderly - but I'll try to be healthy for sure! Thanks!

[maryloulopreste]

This is such a beauty filled video. THANK YOU so much! To look at this aging process with such acceptance and new eyes is wonderful.  You are both to be congratulated on this terrific series.

Thank you

[dgllamas]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting! I'm the only one I know personally who has this viewpoint of aging. Everyone else I've ever known has a negative view of it, buys into the "anti-aging" illusion, and feels badly whenever they see a new line or gray hair. When I see a new gray hair or new line, I actually get tickled pink, lol. THANK YOU for posting, because it's wonderful to find people, even on a YouTube video - who share my p.o.v.

[prasuti]

you are and always have bee amazing people. xoxo

[hypatience]

thank you so much for this

[quentinbrunnett]

Thank you !

[mrcz1]

I'm a mortician by profession and have always tried to tell people to love every minute in life regardless of the negative because you will never have that minute again, so just smile.

[tdcarter2000]

Powerful presentation. Indeed, beauty comes in all shapes, forms, colors, and ages...despite what pop cultures would have one to think. Whe should celebrate the beauty of life in all of it's forms. Thanks for sharing :) Tonya C.

[cindygeenotes]

This is a wonderful video. We need more celebration of age in our culture. You are both beautiful and your art is amazing!

[creativelifenow8]

Nicely done. It is such a lovely commentary on aging and holds positive images for all of us to behold. Thank you.

[xadust666]

How Divinely inspired! It is good to get old...to be old. I know. The alternative does not breathe...the inanimate art does. Your words have power and wisdom and your eyes are mirrors... A wonderful work. Thank You.

[LindaCastroProspero]

wonderfully articulated - beautifully fillmed, and the topic is very timely for us baby boomers, as well as for our aging parents - the perspcetive it gives us it such a gift - the sculptures and paintings are so right on -- thank you

[FatcoachKnowItAll]

What a beautiful short film about the very beautiful book newly created by the most romantic couple I know. Richard and Alice live in love . . . for life, for their work, and for each other. The Art of Aging so well represents the Matzkins' courage in embracing the aging process that is the culmination--and can be the triumph--of human life.

[3suse]

Love it you beautiful loving people!!

[chazwrites]

Right on, Alice and Richard. You're an inspiration! May your book be seen and your message be embraced by all who fear aging.

[mrsarh1]

What a beautiful couple ! I can't wait to buy their book.

[desinga]

Gorgeous inspiring video. Such a beautiful message. Embracing every stage of life, with love. Yes!

[findingojai]

just lovely

[Pawet1]

You have provided a wonderful expression of a loving acceptance of the aging process and inevitability of the changes in our bodies.

[Pawet1]

Just watched this with my husband. We are 63 & 64. We held hands and teared up with gratitude for the most significant pointer back to what is important in this very living alive moment.  Thank you dear Richard and Alice. Thanks you.

[tarablasco]

I love this video. I really like the integrity and wisdom that emanates from Alice and Richard. It is so true!

[JayBeeCee108]

A beautiful gift to share with my parents, elderly friends and enjoy myself first before I pass the book on! Thank you for sharing your insights & wisdoms that most assuredly, will be of benefit to so many!

[tehg42]

Aging happens to each of us every day. At first it seems like something that only happens to "old" people and then slowly momentum picks up and the signs of aging appear more and more frequently first in subtle and then in not so subtle ways. We live in a culture that glorifies youth and staying young which can make getting older a lot harder than embracing it as Richard and Alice have done. We can all learn a lot from the authenticity that is so apparent in this wonderful interview.

[marymary12163]

Such a beautiful couple giving us an important message about truth and beauty as we mature and dwell in this state of age. Bravo!

[ashwam1]

Very inspiring...love this video!!!

[Pawet1]

Love this video. Can't wait to see your beautiful book.

[alicerosalinda1]

What a moving and beautiful video. Can't wait to see the book.
