Whilst this group was a small sample of this research, it also represents an important voice in the findings. It is the group with the greatest benefit of experience and all comments were insightful and valuable. All themes were represented in this groups comments, although the order of priority was quite different. Wisdom was appreciated as equally as time and wrinkles. Comments frequently offered advice for living - take time to smell the flowers, make good use of your time and you will have an enriched life. This was the only group where death as a theme was voiced, representing attitudes ranging from fear to acceptance.
