when my dad was in his 60's i asked him what did it feel like now to be 'old' - he told me he felt the same as he did when he was 4, essentially the same person inside. and he's right - your body changes, you have lots of issues and responsibilities but you remain the same personality i think from a very young age until they cover you with dirt.

there is some truth to age being just a number and a state of mind. depends on your perception mostly. my dad was also fond of saying 'it's not how many years you've lived it's how many you've got left'. nobody knows - only thing i envy with younger people than me is I know the perception a 20 year old has that you have all the time in the world - middle age seems forever away.

20's are great - they last forever it seems. 30-40 goes by in the blink of an eye and i'm sure 40-50 is worse.
