Loneliness and happiness are often related, and people of all ages have been battling those issues for years. The World Happiness Report, released in March, delved further into how people of all generations are experiencing loneliness and happiness globally. And when it comes to loneliness in the US, the younger generations were hit the hardest. This is despite the fact that actual social connections are much more frequent for Millennials than Boomers, and about as frequent as for Generation X." AdvertisementThe focus on meaningful connections might just be what splits older generations from younger generations when it comes to happiness.

Back in New York, Rosalind said she was active with her friends, playing tennis and pickleball at a local club. To attempt to find other social connections, Rosalind said she's taken up playing bridge, participating in a book club, and attending local plays.

☆ How some boomers are overcoming loneliness and finding new friendships in retirement: 'It's been a lifesaver'

While loneliness among older adults has been an issue for years, the pandemic exacerbated it across all age groups. Some experts told me that cities could help counter loneliness with policies that bolster senior centers and ensure accessibility to vital resources and that governments should invest more in mitigating loneliness for older adults. That's largely why Lamy felt compelled to organize an easy way for older adults in the community to meet and talk to one another. What we know is that isolation and loneliness among older people tend to lead to pretty serious health complications very quickly. So there is a real reason for us to try to help older people find connection."

☆ Factbox: Five Facts on Fiji's Prime Minister Bainimarama
  + stars: | 2022-12-22 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
Dec 22 (Reuters) - Fiji Prime Minister Frank Bainimarama, a former military chief who has ruled the Pacific island nation for 16 years, has not conceded defeat despite opposition parties saying they have a combined majority after a closely fought election last week. - He made his first major mark on Fijian politics as head of a post-coup Interim Military Government from May to July 2000. He overthrew Prime Minister Laisenia Qarase in 2006, and has been in power since. Three opposition parties have pledged to form a coalition, effectively dislodging Fiji First, although the alliance is yet to be tested in parliament. His interests include military history, current affairs, rugby union and athletics, and he is President of the Fiji Rugby Union.
