Even when I was little I acted like I was in my 40s, so being nearly 30 isn't that big of a deal with me.
you mean, you don't lounge for physical reason to be lost in time? Not sure if you are but i'm sure enought wimsical to need one!
why when we are young we want to grow old and vice versa

So true
but anyway I believe it's not a big problem. Every age is an expirement that we go through!
My theory is that as the body ages forwards, the mind ages backwards. What we think we remember as the past is actually the future.
So, the only time when the body and mind are perfectly in sync is during that time referred to as the mid-life crisis,
a time of great confusion when the mind can't figure out if it wants to be older or younger!
Interesting
blipvert I usually think of it as we age until we get to be about 47, then we start aging backward until we end up babies again
Most babies are infinitely wise. And teenagers, of course, know everything, and are way smarter than anyone their parents' age.
We really do ignore our intuition as we get older,forget that just because society doesn't acknowledge something,doesn't mean it's not truth
Interesting. The funny thing is that you aways here younger complaning about elders whereas when they become parents, kids complain!
Yeah, I really wanted to be an adult, even told everyone I was older most of my teen years
When I was younger I could remember anything, whether it happened or not.
When I was a boy of 14, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around.
But when I got to be 21, I was astonished at how much the old man had learned in seven years. --Mark Twain

Love Mark Twain
yeah. My fav for him: "Age is a matter of mind over matter, if you don't mind, it doesn't matter"

Yep, that one's good.
I have a lot of faves from him, but one I always like is "The difference between the almost right word & the right word is really a large
matter-it's the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning."
