Repurposed
Aging Well Through Humor, Resilience, Reflection, and Curiosity
What does it really mean to grow
old in the twenty-first century?
After a lifetime of calendars, meetings, and expectations, Louis G. Pol discovers a new stage of life—one not defined by retirement, but by repurposing. In this thoughtful collection of essays, he explores the freedoms, adjustments, and small surprises that come with aging: fewer rules, more choices, and a shifting sense of purpose.
With a wry smile and deep curiosity, Pol reflects on friendship, loss, travel, and the pleasure of no longer having to do all the things he once thought were required. His stories remind us that aging isn’t a surrender—it’s a redefinition.
Repurposed invites readers to pause, laugh quietly, and recognize that the later chapters of life can be just as meaningful, complex, and unexpectedly good as the ones that came before.
Old rules retired. New purpose discovered.
