Being old is about lot of things and one of them is…

Being old is when you realise how beautiful youth was and it’s never going to come back again.

Being old would hopefully bring you many blessings to remember, memories shared, wisdom to realize it's not a bad thing and to love life.
I'm not crying over youth.

@SW-User I couldn’t have put it better myself.

Youth looks good through the blinders of nostalgia. There were so many hard lessons to learn that I really wouldn't want to go through again. Life can be beautiful no matter where you are in years.

@bowman81 Perfect answer.

@bowman81 Yeah but sometimes those hard lessons are the reason for where you are today. Let’s not wish to go back but let’s not wish to forget those hard lessons either.
Indeed, whatever circumstances you are in, you can make life beautiful.

One also realizes how young 31-35 was. 🙂

...and you are still early 30's?

Have I got some bad news for you! :(

@walabby Nothing serious. 🙂 I was just going through the stack of my old photos and then came across the one when I was 18 and something crossed my mind that time travels so fast.
Keats was right
A thing of beauty is joy forever.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
