I don't know why it feels like such a milestone to reach age 50. Maybe because when I was a kid, I thought 50 was practically ancient. Well, I have just proven myself wrong. 😄

Hello everyone!

Hey @GoingInCircles365, welcome to the community!

Haha I feel we give the aging numbers too much credit than they deserve, just the numbers making us feel all sorts of things. 😅

50 is certainly not ancient hehe, and yay for proving yourself wrong! Here's to living life as it comes, each day! We are here for youu!❤

Welcome to the community. For me 40 was the milestone, but other than that minor difference I can definitely relate. It's like you've arrived at an intersection with a sign that says "[town where you started] - 50 mi. / East Colon - 107 mi." & you think Geez, have I really traveled that far??... Aging sneaks up on us. We never see it coming no matter what warnings other people give.

Thanks for the warm welcome. I do find it interesting talking with my "older" friends and asking sometimes personal questions. I know everyone's journey in life is unique, but it's rather enjoyable to share stories.
