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.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I quite like being old.
I guess I don't so much mind being old, as I mind being fat and old.
I turned 30 as a janitor. I was thinking at the time that Hank Williams died when he was 29. All my peers were at least 10 years younger than I was. I felt like an old has-been at the time.
Getting old is a fascination thing. The older you get, the older you want to get.
Even when I was a child, I always wanted to be older. I realised just in time that it's a mistake and to enjoy my youth while I had it.
I don't feel any older now than when I was 70.
I will never give in to old age until I become old. And I'm not old yet!
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.
My mother was 45 when she had me, so when I was in high school my parents were the same age as my friends' grandparents.
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.
