How young friends keep us young

Article Abstract:

Old people sometimes feel much older and more alone as their outlooks have shrunk along with the shrinking of their circle of friends. For good health and well-being, old people must develop friendships with younger people who are more enthusiastic and fun. Doing volunteer work, enrolling in a class and extending one's hospitality are some of the ways by which one can refresh one's circle of friends.
