But I have young kids despite our same age which means I have my duty

I am 74. You are the same age and have young kids? Good luck to you. I am happy to be single with no obligations now. I spent from 1956 to 2001 married with a family. Getting away from the constant obligations of the family was one reason for coming to the islands.

I think the religions of the East are the reason those cultures spent the 19th and most of the 20th Century squatting on their dunghills and shaking their fist at the planes passing overhead. They are still having problems Westernizing.

I figure the time I spend figuring out how to handle my health problems keeps me optomistic and healthy. I want to stick around as long as I have my health and my senses. Then, a stroke on the dancefloor would be a great way to go. My Dance Idol, Frankie Manning, will celebrate his 95th birthday on a NYC dance floor next May, with a world-wide crowd of about 2000 there. He is still doing the Lindy and will dance 95 ladies to celebrate.

I spend three or four nights a week at my dancehall, a Rooster surrounded by hens, having a ball. And leave alone. This is dancing, not romancing. What we do on the floor, stays on the floor. :>) After all, dancing is "the vertical expression of a horizontal desire." And I do "get it on."
