Euphemism: relaxed part of life.
Truth: Life deterioration.​

Whatever you WANT it to be.

Truth: Life deterioration.​

If you do it right: the path to being the biggest boss in the planet

If you do it wrong: f*ck THESE KIDS MY BACK HURTS. THAT CASHIER WAS RUDE

general trends:

Wisdom: more time, more wisdom
Energy: More time, less energy (unless you really take care of yourself)
Money: More time... there's a broad spectrum
Relationships: More time, fewer relationships (at least personally)

 

[Lex DeVille]

A good sign you aren't dead yet ..

Why ponder it when you'll get to experience it directly .. (probably)

 

[minivanman]

Better than not.

 

[Galaxy16]

Whatever you WANT it to be.

Only if SENS foundation succeeds.

Aging = the process of maturing into a more centered and focused person that gives less shits about unimportant things...like aging

 

[Determined2012]

Ok... Weight gain.


On a positive note:

Wisdom, clarity, and perspective.

 

[Andy Black]

gives less shits about unimportant things

^^^ This.

Although I have noticed it takes a lot longer to recover between training sessions. I’ll start looking at helping my body with diet and supplements etc, whereas this wasn’t on the radar as a youth.

 

[Ayanle Farah]

If I could choose I'd prefer to be young forever, I don't mind aging though.

 

[Kak]

Losing the BS and gaining wisdom.

 

[jon.a]

Keeping challenges in perspective.

 

[rollerskates]

It beats the alternative!

Also, wisdom and not giving a sh*t are right up there as two of the most awesome things in the universe.

 

[Vigilante]

Wisdom for few.

Existence for most.

 

[Kelvin Fernandez]

Another day closer to death.

 

[jon.a]

Another day closer to death.

Everyone is another day closer to death.

I'm 60 and would be happy to compare...

Perhaps this is a bad idea. Not even sure why I thought this. One thing I have learned from aging is that being right or even the need to debate is not important. There really are not many cases where there is a correct answer. You could kill someone and still make a case for why you were right.

 

[Galaxy16]

Everyone is another day closer to death.

Either death or SENS.

Is this MJ DeMarco's favourite TV commercial?

I am 25 years old , for me aging is to be more and more aware of life limitations . So as you age you become more realist and down to earth , i think aging is a blessing if you use it in the right way , cause you can read it , but if you dont experience it , it wont impact you as much . My goal in the rest of my twenties is to age in a disproportional way in comparison to my age

 

[Dubidu]

Ageing is a privilege not all get...

 

[SM Switi]

aging: giving fewer f*cks

 

[Ray Goslin]

EVERYONE'S OLD THE DAY BEFORE THEY DIE. If you're 60, then to a 95yo you're young, but to a twenty year old you're old. The only time that's real is now. Who's better off. An 18yo whose bored shitless, or an 80yo who's full of life.

 

[WJK]

I don't mind aging -- considering the alternative.

Actually, I'm very happy to be 64 years old. I still haven't decided what I want to be when I grow up. But, I sure have tried a lot of different paths over those years. I'm so glad to be living during this period of time. There are so many opportunities.

Growth, and decay- plus living in truth

Only a few less. I always try to keep up like I did when I was in my 20's.

Let's see who gets that

When my athletic grandson was 14. I was about 52. He wanted to have a foot race. I have a reputation for speed. Had already run 16 miles that morning and was a little tired. Anyway, he beat me. Then he proceeded to run toward the house yelling "I beat grandpa". I said "listen to what you are saying. Probably not going to impress your friends"
