Two men, Stuart Kaplan and Marcus Riley, got together to discuss how they understood what it meant to mature and grow older. With year’s of experience in interacting with individuals who, by the world’s standards, were considered old and were expected to take life easier. They concluded that the definition of aging did not adequately define how people should live their life.
