What does it mean to be a kid at heart?
Or is it?
The simple answer is that you are active, interested, engaged with life, and get out there and live.
The more important factor though isn’t whether you’re fit and having fun, it’s whether or not you obsess about the good old days, moan about the youth of today, and take refuge in bitterness and regrets.
Those are the things that age you, and they are caused by losing your joy in life.
Terrible warning
This can happen at any age. The moment you become a moaner, glass half empty, life’s not fair kinda person, you will start to age.
Because it’s attitude that ages you, not years on the clock.
No matter what age you are you need to avoid losing your zest and enthusiasm for life. You really don’t want an old cranky head on young shoulders.
Engage
Stay engaged with life. Realise that things change, accept that they won’t always change for the better. Society will change. Adapt. Find the good in it.
When I went to university at 39 U was so impressed by how much more aware the younger students were than in my day. One young lady told me that she wasn’t wasting the opportunity her parents had given her by dating and becoming distracted.
The fact is you can find good anywhere if you look for it, and you can find the bad just as easily.
Choose wisely – stay young – don’t let age become a thing!
