I have a general rule, don't fear things you can't change.

We live in a culture fixated on youth. Old means feeble and helpless, unable to earn money or climb mountains. Old is a lot of fun though, because I don't worry about what I say anymore, I wear comfortable clothes, and life is good

Not really. I intend to take good care of myself and my body. When I’m old, hopefully I’ll be in decent shape and enjoy my old age and my grandchildren. As long as my husband’s with me I’ll be alright.

yes since I don't want to ever become feeble and helpless, that really scares me

No actually I'm not really. I'm looking forward to all that life brings my way. To watch my children grow up and live happily with my husband. Now my husband he's terrified to get old.

"Every man desires to live long,but no man would be old"(Jonathan Swift).In my opinion the old age is the worst thing in this world.

no to be honest i love it. I am now 31 and i love being in my thirties, i have lots more of condifence now than what i have ever had before. I am a lot more relaxed inmyself. I dont feel that i have to prove myself anymore. I feel happy being in my thirties but i have to say that i dont know if i am going to feel the same about turning 40 thou! To me age is just a number and it is what you do and if you enjoy your life as we all have to get old but lets all make it enjoyable that is the main thing is to have a good one
