Well, I am still in my mid 20's and I like this age. Its like the age for me wherein I am free to do whatever I want. Take a lot of challenges and take responsibilities. This time for me is that start of having a career and a family. Become independent and live life to the fullest, the right way of course.
What do you think about your age? Do you like it? Do you wish to be older or younger? What is it about your age that you like the most?

That is a very good adjective to use about your age now! Magic! I think only you mentioned that and considered your age as something magical when it comes to mind and thinking and feminity. I too, would want to have that kind of magic at that right time.

we all have an idea of being Immortal, but we all can never be... all that matters is we try our best to be happy, whatever we do......

Yeah! Dont think negatively but think of the most possible things you can do to achieve whatever it is that you wanted to have in your life. I wanted to get a better job in the future and I am doing things that will help me achieve it. Wish me luck! =)

I like the age that I am now. It is always better than the alternative. I am in my so-called "golden years", and so far they haven't been very "golden". Middle age isn't the greatest for aches and pains, but I'm still kickin'.

Not with the aches and pains but the most important thing is that you are still alive and kicking. There are things that younger people dont have that you have so maybe you are proud of that too. I guess in the age that you are in right now, you dont have worries like we do. =)

I wish that young people had the knowledge that we have at our age. It would certainly help them cope better with their problems. Oh, the knowledge that we gain with age!!!

Happy to see you have a wonderful age and a wonderful life. I don't like my age , sometimes I think if I am still 20something, I can make a lot change for my life. if i have the personality of now when I was still 20something, My life would be different. But that is life.I don't like my age , one reason is that the women at my age almost all turn to a kids-addiction. It makes me so boring.

A lot of people will say that they like it being 20's but those who are in there 20's are not going to stay in that age for a long time. Whatever age we have, I think it will depend on how we are going to enjoy it. There are so many things in life that can make us happy, we just need to make use of it. Good luck!

Hi p3ks626, I share with you this nostalgic feeling for younger age...as we cannot rewind the time, I would like to stay in my ages from 15 to 29...At 15, I was just starting to look at the physical beauty of Helen, my schoolmate whom I secretly admired though she never knew until now that I had been admired her. She was married to someone else not me...after my twenties, I began to see myself getting old faster. I don't like ageing but wish to be younger.

Yeah i prefer my age but not like it.My age is where i am told by my hubby to stop being a kid and start growig up.i wish i was back in my early twenties, more agile,active,free spirited with many more dreams to realise(have achieved a few of them now).
I would like to go back to my early twenties date the right guys, groom myself much better, have aspirations, new goals in life and most importantly save my earnings very very wisely.

I'm in my mid 20's too and like you I also enjoy this age bracket. But given a choice I would prefer a younger age, maybe 5 years younger.
Cause like what you've said in our age is a nice time to start a family and have a career, but I don't think I'm ready for all that, I'm not getting any younger and that bothers me sometime.

We cant turn back time anymore and I think we are in this age because its preparing us for something big that will happen to us and face responsibilities. I understand if some people are not ready for it. But we cant do anything about it anymore because we are already here. You can just wait until the time comes that you will be ready and as for now, take things easily.

There are so many reasons for us to be happy in this life. Life is very full of fascinating things that could be the reason for us to live life and love it. Every year is a new chapter as you said. And we make our own stories that's why it depends on us on how we are going to make or break it.

Well, in another week I'll be hangin' out at 58 and the best thing about it is..oh..despite the warrenties that have been running out on this ol' body like the need for eyeglasses and the hairline racing to meet up with my ponytail and the various achy things that announce themselves to me..I'm still well able to remember the fondness of yesterday and dream of possible tomorrows and enjoy the company of Liz..
Enjoy!

Well, the memories of yesterday are worth remembering. When I will in your age, I think that's the same things I would like to remember. I am still gaining experiences my age now and I hope these are going to be experiences that's going to be good for me and my family.

I love what I am to be. When I was young I thought that being kid was so wonderful. However, I realize to that every step in my life give me different condition. I have to receive and enjoy my life. There are many responsibility in every stage of our life. We can't choose to be younger just for fun and want to be adult whenever we want to enjoy adult material. We have to receive the advantage and disadvantage in every stage of our life. By realizing this we will be responsible person.

Right! We dont have a choice but to accept both the advantages and the disadvantages of what our age may bring/ Every one pass this stage. No one ever skipped or stayed in an age range. Its just up to us on how we are going to take the things that comes with age.

I wish I am younger; maybe 20's because there are many opportunities that I've missed during my younger years. I'm in my early 50's and people tend to laugh at me or wonder why do I long to work or hold a job. I'm a proactive though and most people that I meet don't seem to understand especially in the HR department.

I think there are lots of us here who seems to have so many regrets when it comes to the things that happened in the past. If only we can turn back time then we would do it. But anyway, its very impossible to turn back time now so I guess we'll just have to make the best of the age that we are in now.

Hello P3ks. I'm in my mod forties and I don't really feel much different to when I was in my mid twenties or thirties. One of the good things about being my age is I have more confidence now and I've learned from a lot of mistakes which can only be good. On the negative side I can't burn the candle at both ends like I used to but I wouldn't swap my age for anything :)

If there would be a certain potion that will help maintain young age then that will be the most expensive item in the market since everyone wants to be young. lol I think most of us want to be young forever but it just cant happen, right? But what we can do I think is to make the best out of every year we have.

I can't think of any decade of my life that I have not enjoyed. I hope you have that same feeling as you go through life.

I'm currently 31 and feel frustrated. I do not feel like I have accomplished as much as I would have wanted to by this point in my life. The only advantage I find to my age is you seem to get a little bit more respect when you voice your opinions due to the amount of work experience that I now have behind me.

Dont be frustrated. You still have plenty of time to improve on the things that needs improvement. I also want to get frustrated cause I am going to be 27 already and I still dont have a stable job. but I said to myself, if get frustrated then its not going to do me any good.

I am an adolescent which means to grow up -is a transitional stage of physical and mental human development generally occurring between puberty and legal adulthood but may also be defined as ending of teen stage . A young adult is generally between the ages of to wheres an adolescent is a person between the ages of and 19 .historically puberty has been heavily associated with teenagers

Good for you! I guess you feel more like an adult now that you are in that age. There are so many things that we expect as we age. There are so many unexpected things and all that but everything will be worth it. I think you will like the kind of life that you are going to have in the future but it will depend on how you're going to live it.

Just like Peter Pan? Hmmm.. But maybe not! Peter wanted to be a child forever. I also want to be young but not like Peter.
I also want to have those experiences that older people have than younger people dont have. I think its going to do something good with the kind of life that I would want to have.
