How old are you?

[altlover85]

LOL, that's not even true anyway

The last good generation were the X-Y cusp - people born from around '78-'82

I'm not sure how you can judge a generation that's only barely into their 30's.

 

[wooffy]

^ usually mom...... dad,

and significant other if applicable.

The first two are out of the picture, and the latter rarely remembers hsi own age, much less mine!

 

[eximius]

22 years young!

 

[altlover85]

Because they're fucking awesome

Umm . . . okay.

Personally, I've felt every generation contributes something of value.

 

[altlover85]

Personally, I feel like most generations are of little value, but there are exceptional people across all demographics who overcome their mindfucked peers.

I suppose while I don't have as harsh a view of people as you do, you sort of got to the heart of what I meant.

Every generation will produce some amazing people who have a significant affect on the lives of others.

 

[PrettyWings]

23. Time flies after High School.

[FanofFiction]

I'm 26.

I seldom feel I'm talking to seniors on this site. Are you frequenting the daddy/older threads much?

Happy belated birthday and happy anniversary Ashy

I've shared this in other threads and I think it applies here also.....btw I'm 49

Do I mind my age?

I would never trade my amazing friends, my wonderful low stress life, my
loving family for less gray hair or a flatter
belly. As I've aged, I've become kinder to myself, and less critical of
myself and others. I've become my own friend. I don't chide myself for
eating that extra cookie, or for not making my bed, or for buying something
that I didn't need. I am entitled to a treat, to be messy, and to afford to
be extravagant.

I have seen too many dear friends leave this world too soon; before they
understood the great freedom that comes with aging.

Whose business is it if I choose to watch tv, read or play, on the computer
until 3 AM and sleep til noon? I will still wish I could dance with myself
to those wonderful tunes of the 70s & 80's, and if I, at the same time, wish
to weep over a lost love or loss of a friend ... I will.

I will walk the beach in a swim suit that is stretched over a bulging body,
not worry about my man-boobs, and will dive into the waves with abandon if I
choose to, despite the pitying glances from the jet set. They, too, will
get old.

I know I am sometimes forgetful. But there again, some of life is just as
well forgotten. And I eventually remember the important things.

Sure, over the years my heart has been broken and maybe caused others
heartache. How can your heart not break when you lose a loved one, or when
a child suffers, or even when somebody's beloved pet gets hit by a car? But
broken hearts are what give us strength, understanding, and compassion. A
heart never broken is pristine and sterile and will never know the joy of
being imperfect.

I am so blessed to have lived long enough to have my hair turn gray, and to
have my youthful laughs be forever etched into deep grooves on my face.

So many have never laughed, and so many have died before their hair could
turn silver. As you get older, it is easier to be positive. You care less
about what other people think. I don't question myself anymore. I've even
earned the right to be wrong.

So, to answer your question, I like being old. It has set me free. I like
having the opportunity to do whatever I want whenever I want. I like the
person I have become. I thank God for every day of good health and look
forward to coming events both planned and unplanned. I am not going to live
forever, but while I am still here, I will not waste time lamenting what
could have been, or worrying about what will be. And I shall eat dessert
every single day (if I feel like it).

I wish this for you!

Thanks for a wonderful post. Being just a few years older than you, so much of what you say pertains to my life as well. As the true love of my life is no longer with me, I have had to depend on just me now. It's been difficult but a continuing learning experience. Happy Hollidays to all.

Haha! I thought that was funny.

 

[birddog7]

Way too old to suit me. I'm 49, and I don't like getting older at all...

As a lad,

My mother Gaia

named me Tartarus.

Over time
my proclivities and mindedness

have earned me
the appellation of and recognition

as LEFTY.

Age is something that Sir Ron has never lied about....(although he has been known to lie about other things, hehehe!)

I am what I am, and that is age 47.

 

[MTLDude]

As of the time of this posting, I am 40 years, 6 months and 11 days old!

 

[Thad1527]

I'm 56. But a classic case of arrested development.

 

[derelictdarrel]

i'm 28.

people typically guess 22/23...which is nice I guess

 

[spooger]

i am 59

but i swear ... i don't feel any different physically from when i was 30 ... really

i backpack long miles in the desert and mountains a couple of times a year and camp and hike many weekends ... mountain bike, canoe, run, play sandlot ball, work long hours pushing equipment & patients around the hospital ... basically anything i choose to do

and i never have an ache or pain ... practically never ill (i haven't needed a doctor in decades) ... and i never think about my age in terms of limitations or what i "used to be able to do"...

i know i am blessed ... i see many of my younger friends in their 30s already wearing down .... and in my profession i care for people in increasing numbers who are quite younger than i

for my health and opportunities i am infinitely grateful .. i always say "God didn't make me pretty, but he made me healthy ... and i'm satisfied" ... but some people call me cute, too

binowgaylater : "It always amazes me when I get totally shut-down (on here) because someone has decided that he can't talk to anybody over XX age........"

i just got that last week from a 20something guy who lives nearby --- i welcomed him to JUB and asked his interests ... his reply was "i hope you're not really 59 ... if so i'm not interested" ...i'm like ... Please!
i didn't ask to fuck you ....

 

[The White Stripe]
