I'm too young at 50. I'm not grown up yet. There's part of everybody like that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A lot happens at 50, the best thing being that you just don't care anymore. At 40, you still care. At 30, you care way too much - and your twenties are quite frankly a nightmare. Bring on 60, I say: just imagine the joy of having grandchildren.
Even though I am in my mid-40s, I live like I am in my mid-20s.
I think when you turn 50 you get a little melancholic in a way.
We're not meant to be parents when we're 50.
Once I turned 40, my whole life changed in the most mature - not boring way but much cooler way. I feel much more like an adult.
I've always wanted to be older, as I think it's all right to be a little bit odd when you're out of your 20s.
There's no such thing as old age. I'm no different now than I was 50 years ago. I'm just having more fun.
Turning 50 is a little bit of a 'taking stock' moment. I feel probably a little dumber. I don't think I'm as sharp as I was when I was younger, but I'm definitely wiser and less likely to make gigantic blunders of an intellectual, spiritual, emotional or physical type.
When you're 50 you start thinking about things you haven't thought about before. I used to think getting old was about vanity - but actually it's about losing people you love. Getting wrinkles is trivial.
If you're 50, you're never going to be 50 ever again, so enjoy being 50. If you sit through the year wishing you were younger, before you know it, it's going to be over, and you're going to be 51.
