Popular Post Celsius Posted August 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2023 I want this day to last forever. Life is not fair, I still feel like a spoiled child. What are the actual benefits of being this old? I don't see any. I guess I can now live forever in Thailand on retirement visa? What an amazing benefit. What else? Give me something positive you aged misbegottens. 1 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me something positive you aged misbegottens. For me it’s not an age thing, it’s a world view thing and how greeting others from any background without a predisposition or assumption and not giving a damn about their positions or beliefs that may oppose mine, some of the best friendships I have in the US are with those that are polar opposite on beliefs. It’s all in the head and how we perceive the world, minus toxic company. Edited August 31, 2023 by novacova 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post pomchop Posted August 31, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2023 Maybe just be a bit more aware that the alternative to getting older is to die. While you may think 50 is old you ain't seen nothing yet. Get on with whatever it is/was you planned to do with your life....all of those bucket list items...repeat after me...if not now, when? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Farang Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 When you're out with family and friends in the same age bracket, the conversations will become more about your medications, your aches, pains and other conditions that no longer go away after a week or so. Ye will talk about friends who got heart attacks, strokes, cancer and other exotic conditions and ye shall laugh merrily about how things have changed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 50 I also became more curios about what happened to people I knew when I was younger, teachers, friends, college buddies. You end up finding some of them on the internet or Facebook and learn about how they died ????. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me something positive you aged misbegottens. Now you can have a 'mid life' crisis. Was one of my thoughts when hitting 50, almost 19 yrs ago. Thinking that was never going to happen when younger, so why not shoot of 100. Just keep moving forward, new hobby, new sights, new things to do, perfecting & enjoying what you already know & do. Too much time on your hands, start cooking at home. That new hobby, eat healthier, cheaper, and might even make it to 100. For comic relief, read the daily doom & gloom news, and the sad sots on AN complaining everyday, about everything, realizing that they are miserable and that they are still alive.

IndomitableSpirit Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Belated HBD! If you feel good, content and happy then 50 is but a number. Each year is a blessing though. It's my last year in 30s, I used to think I will be old and wrinkly haha. Many think I wasted my life for not being married but those are the same toxic people I cut off from life. Surround yourself with people who aren't toxic, you are blessed each year with life not to live for others but to make the best out of your life! Do what makes you feel excited and puts a smile on your face, so long you're not stepping on others. ???????? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
