Age:Blessing or Bane?

Tweet

The title should have been, "Looking Younger Than Your Age: A Blessing or Bane?" but that would have been a kilometric title and totally a waste of space if no one bothers to reply to this discussion!:) I look young for my age. I often get mistaken for a high school student if I'm not in my office uniform. And I'm thankful for it. but sometimes it becomes a hindrance, I got passed over a promotion because i look too young for the job. I fought tooth and nail for that one. How young one looks should never be used as a gauge to how much one knows and what one is capable of doing. Age should never be discriminatory. Looking young has been both a blessing and a curse for me...as to the curse part, I just console myself by thinking that by the time my looks finally catch up with my age, my detractors would by then be looking like grandmothers! I still get the last laugh!Ha-ha-ha-ha....(insert here the evil cackle).
