How to Face Old Age - Preparing for Life’s Final Chapter with Dignity, Grace, and Joy  (English, Paperback, M K Devidasan)

Old age is the only stage in life that everyone—regardless of wealth, caste, education, or power—must eventually face. Yet, it's the least prepared for. How to Face Old Age is a practical, empathetic, and sometimes surprising guide to embracing the final chapter of life—not as a decline, but as an opportunity for reflection, contribution, and inner peace. Structured as a life manual and a philosophical companion, the book explores the emotional, physical, financial, social, and spiritual dimensions of aging, and how to prepare for each. It’s not just for the elderly—this book is also a wake-up call for the younger generation to start planning early, mentally and practically, for the inevitable. The book offers case studies, true-to-life examples, and twists of fate that affect everyone from millionaires to middle-class pensioners, retired teachers to former ministers, farmers, and housewives. It levels the field, showing how money and status can’t protect anyone from loneliness, irrelevance, or the loss of purpose—but how wisdom, preparation, and mindset can.
