How do you feel about growing older? I, myself, am not a fan.

It’s a privilege not everyone gets. I’m in your same age group, but a significant number of people I went to school with didn’t make it this far. Some made bad choices, others were victims of cruel fate.

As I was told years ago, it's better than the alternative.
I have already lived longer than any other man on my father's side of the family and if I live another 6 years, I'll be the oldest man in my family tree ever....and I definitely think that would be better than the alternative.
@DragonFruit My father’s outlived everyone in his immediate family, his brothers and all of his cousins. He has two nephews and a niece, and there are a couple of cousins’ children.
I just go with it, try to make the best of it, stay active. It's happening. I guess because I will never see my parents old I will remain naive about it. Plus I like the living I did. So yeah I'm good with it.

It’s happening so I try to accept it. I just try my best to be healthy, in hopes I age “gracefully”

I feel like I know so much more now....

Also, you kind of get used to the idea and realize if you can still do most everything - it's kind of OK...
Some things are better but losing your looks and the aches and pains is not fun.
It's amazing. I get to live.

i never felt old until of late. I am offered the senior discount, or offered a seat...it is kind of shocking to be honest because i have more energy than a young person

I may not be old but I'm definitely getting older. I'm tripping out over the fact I'll be thirty next year

I'm okay with it because it means I'm still alive

I have a painting of me in the attic that grows old while i stay young.

I thought it would bother me more than it does.

🤷‍♂I complain a lot more.

It's good and bad, just like most things
Me, neither…but it sure beats the alternative, at least for now.
Scares me to death because according to my illness it will eventually slowly kill me and that is reality for me.
It has its upsides. Now if I can just remember what those are…

@HowtoDestroyAngels 🤔maybe not but there is nothing much you can do sadly about it
