We’re actually much happier when we’re old. A recent research study found that people actually get happier as they get older.
Older people tend to have internal mechanisms to deal better with hardship or negative circumstances than those who are younger.” Another reason seniors may also be happier is because age means that they are “more comfortable being themselves.”
Many seniors require help with daily living activities such as housework and personal care activities, like washing, dressing, or eating. Other times, they just want a friend or transportation to an appointment.
Happiness is the only goal and purpose of life. Get it easily – Anywhere, Anytime, Everytime

Older people tend to be happier. But why? Some psychologists believe that cognitive processes are responsible—in particular, focusing on and remembering positive events and leaving behind negative ones; those processes, they think, help older people regulate their emotions, letting them view life in a sunnier light.
