I hope Age isnt relatiuve all my older relatives are mostly dead.

Both my grandmothers died at 90 and my mother's oldest sister is now 93 and just fine. I hope I have inherited something of their good fortune!
As for the greys, I started at 30 and now my hair is almost white, we have this too in the family, going grey young.

My grandfather's 12 (or 11, I don't know if he's included) brothers died of cancer, and now he's cancer too. I can see my end
The generation between us (my father, 3 uncles and 5 aunts (already half of the world population :D)) didn't have cancer. Maybe we finally escaped from the curse though.

Is starting to go grey at 30 young? My first grey hairs came in my late 20s, but the change has been slow and it looks like I'll be peppered for some time.

Are you becoming a chrome dome too? If not, I wouldn't worry. A little bit of grey makes us looks wise. Whether we are wise is of course a different question...

Well I have meet 20 year olds that behave and think like they were in their 50s; And I have met 60 year olds that behave and appear to think like they were in their 20s.

Age seems to be relative. Don't take it too seriously!

I have no blood relatives over 70 so aging relatively is not comforting but cheers, peter .

NO no snhiny head just a thinning of the Forrest and a sat pepper greying.

a bit of frier tuck happening but only on security cameras ..must be the lends they use.

lucky aging dosnt affect my spelling but my typing is very sus..

Signs you know you're old:

Hollywood are remaking one of your favourite films that you're sure only came out a few years ago.

That shifty looking youth who looks like he's stolen a policeman's helmet on second glance turns out to be a policeman.

The woman half your age is old enough to be your wife.

You have no idea what songs are in the top ten, and you're proud of the fact.

Don't want to become old

I think it's all relative, people that love their life want to live til 90+, those that hate their life wish to be killed while they're young

Definitely. I must admit my 20’s were enormous fun & splendidly irresponsible, but between 30 & 50 the enjoyment of building a family, home, career, was probably more memorable. Since then life with hobbies, that I’ve enjoyed all my life, keep me amused & I’m not missing the hurly burly of “making a living” one bit. Taking care of health, with a reasonable lifestyle, has made the arrival of the 60’s not too painful (yet) & using my parents as an example of what might be to come they definitely enjoyed it right up to 90. After that it looked like less fun, but by them who cares? You can afford to laugh at the world at that point...

Obviously we all get one year less to live for every year that passes. I am just saying that turning 50 is no excuse to become a grumpy old man/woman that just sits next to edge of the grave waiting for the inevitable to happen.

You still have a choice on how you want to spend whatever time there is left and then I prefer to spend it with the mindset of a younger person that still is enjoying life... Rather be a bit too childish than a bit too grumpy!!
