The only person who can say they're happy getting old is someone who isn't actually old yet. Every day, I get less and less happy about that idea.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If you're always battling against getting older, you're always going to be unhappy, because it's going to happen anyhow.
I don't understand people getting depressed about getting older. There is nothing you can do about it, so you might as well embrace it.
Certainly, for time out of mind, an obsessive dwelling on happier former days has been synonymous with getting older, while it was the juvenescent who rushed with open arms to embrace the future.
As I started getting older, I realized, 'I'm so happy!' I didn't expect this! I wasn't happy when I was young.
Getting old is a fascination thing. The older you get, the older you want to get.
And I'm a really happy person, I enjoy life. I think you see that on people. I think there's nothing more aging than misery.
I'm not bothered by the idea of getting old, or I guess you could say by having arrived at old. I was 10 when my mom turned 55. For 1955, she was a very old mom.
I've been a much happier person in my early thirties than I was in my twenties.
What makes old age so sad is not that our joys but our hopes cease.
I'm not one of those people who is not looking forward to getting old. I'm happy with my life.
