My first blog! Thought I would try it out as so many others want to speak out to the world, so I thought I would join in.
Went to see my best friend last weekend and the subject of age came up, so for a short journey into the world of blogging I thought I would use this as a first subject.
Being the mature age of early 40s, why is it that I still feel around about 25 in my mind, but my body is feeling like it's correct age (most days - but not today when I feel like a creaky 80 year old!). Why doesn't my mind keep pace with the body? It probably doesn't want to, but unfortunately, I have notiuced that the body doesn't heal as quick as it used to, and creaks in a lot more places tha it used to - so I do get the frequent reminder that it isn't 25 any longer. :-)
I know what age I am, and when I look in the mirror I am comfortable (but resigned to the fact) that I see a mid 40s looking man staring back at me that still bear some resemblance to that youthful bright-eyed innocent lad of my early 20s (back in the good old late 80s/early 90s).
What I would like to know is why the mind likes to retain an age of the favourite era of life, when you are nice and relaxed and away from the seriousness of working life and the weight of the working experiences.
Saying that, I like feeling 25 in my mind when not at work, even if the body doesnt quite live up to the expectations of the mind! Will save the serious, mid 40s approach to life for the office !
Signing off for the time being.
