Jon’s Tedx Talk came out today. I remember crying when I first heard him read it, I cried again today when I saw it on YouTube. Not because it’s sad, because it’s so hopeful. I’m thrilled to share it here.

Beautiful!!! Wonderful words of wisdom, Jon. You got a keeper there, Maria. 🙂
It was awesome!! I am going to share it on my Facebook….
Oh good Anne, I agree, it’s awesome and should be shared and shared.
Maria, Thanks for sharing this wonderful, wonderful, 16 minutes . Wow ! Tears of hopeful joy make sense as Jon’s talk is so very authentic and connecting. It touched me like hearing Simon Bray…..!
Now that’s a compliment Virginia.
You are a lucky lady. I’ve watched this twice and have been checking the ted site regularly waiting to see this. I knew it would be great. I did okay until the very end. I keep repeating don’t give up, don’t give up.
Maria, I just finished watching this from Jon’s site. So moving. I just love this guy and am so privileged to have “found” you both. You are both inspirations over and over. Thank you so much.
I love jon! xoxoxoxo (Did I just say that?)
Of course you did, it’s just like you Cindy.
Thank you for sharing Maria.
Jon’s lessons live on and on. I always hang on his every word. Thanks for creating quick access to this link, Maria. Here’s to meaningful aging, accomplished without fear ~ doing it “My” way.
Jon’s thoughtful wisdom on aging has touched me deeply.
Beautifully written, and spoken.
Thank you, Maria, for sharing it with us,so that I
can listen to it again, when I am feeling overwhelmed with aging and the “messages” coming at me.
Maria, this touched me to my core, as I too (at 57) am growing older, in the eyes of this world. My husband and I also have a small farm raising goats, chickens, kitties and dogs being our companions. Jon spoke the words of how I feel about “growing older”. He brought tears. Thank you so much for sharing. 🙂
Thank you,Maria, for sharing. I was mesmerized listening to Jon read his manifesto. For so long, I have wanted someone to stand up and tell the world the exact words he read. I relate to his thoughts about our making our own health decisions. My doctor has always realized that I am not one who wants tests and we agreed 18 years ago when I became one of his first patients that I would accept him as my doctor if he would allow me to listen to my body. He agreed.
Thank you again, Maria for sharing this wonderful, wonderful talk. I shall listen to it again and again.
Jon was awesome. What a wonderful talk. He is a fine example of how to age. He was intelligent, thoughtful, and eloquent.
Loved it! Jon touches on something I feel deeply about, let’s live until we die!
I knew it would be a great talk. It took years off my age and added decades to my life. Bedlam Farm and its inhabitants have been my fountain of youth. I thank you Maria for sharing it with all of us.
fabulous! so glad to hear the talk — it’s better than I thought and I knew it would be great! so happy for you guys and for all of us b/c we have you!
