Not to
generalize too much…. I think most people in their 20’s believe they are
invincible and immortal. In our 30’s we begin to realize the importance of
career and planning, setting down roots.
In our 40’s we begin to see the fruits of our labors and maybe agonize
at the beginnings of the later part of our lives. In some cases people may even act out their
mid-life crises and try to be invincible again.
But our 50’s… damn the 50’s are glorious. For me it is the BEST time of my life. I can only hope and pray that the next few
decades promise this and so much more…..

I've heard this from many of my older friends, including a lady friend in her 60s who claims she feels better now than in her 20s. It is very encouraging now that I am entering my 30s and beginning to deal with the inevitability of grey hairs, wrinkles, imperfect skin... and the fact that @ 33 I've not accomplished as much as I thought (due mostly to lack of focus in the 20s lol).
