...so me and Kindle are driving around today having this conversation about aging. She reminded me that when I was her age, She was eight.
She went on to let me know how she thought I was sooo old then, but she doesn't feel like she is old now...
hmmm.
So here's the thing....you know this whole "young adult having fun" thing really only last a short while in the whole scheme of things. I mean really, you have about a 10 year stint of leading the "cool, carefree,my way or the highway" kind of life.
Right?....well...
Here's the real thing about it....(listen closely)
YOU NEVER STOP FEELING LIKE YOU ARE TWENTY-TWO!
I'm telling you....It doesn't matter how many wrinkles the mirror is showing...as a woman my age, I still think of myself being, you know, 20-ish...and all my friends do too. I know just about everything is sagging either to my waist or to my ankles (depending on the item) it doesn't matter...in my mind I am still young and can do anything...except sometimes I can't breathe for a long time after doing that "anything"...like walking out to the car for instance.
So the next time you see someone in "mid-life" with lots of wrinkles
(I'm living to be 100)
give them a break...they are just immature young "thangs" that have just been having a good time... (in their minds)
