    Fuck im 25 and feel 40, this is why I will not shy away from my day of destined death. I can feel that it’ll be before I’m 40 and I frankly want nothing to do with being 40.

      One day you’ll wake up and realize people born on the year you graduated school can legally vote, drink, etc. A short time later those kids have kids of their own … and you are ( or are old enough to be ) a grandparent.

      The worst part is you’ll still mentally feel like you’re not much older than your late 20s or 30s.

        My older sister was a grandmother at age 34. 30’s is literally grandparent age to my great nephew and great niece who are approaching their teens.

        I dunno, I’m in my mid-50s and I feel like I’m about 100. The world today is just so different from that of my childhood in the '70s.

      Na, being 40 is fine. I’m 45, eat well and get a little exercise. I am healthier than I was in my 20’s, I have more stamina and I think more clearly.
