Yeah it's hard to calculate when reality sets in. There's also a bit of reluctance from me as a lot of expectations follow me when I reveal my age even when I don't look like how old I am. It's like suddenly you feel that you are not so welcome in some conversations any more or people keep you out of their circles because they presume that you don't fit in.

I've gotten way past that and while realising that my body isn't what it was physically 20 years ago, I'm treating age as just a number and if one has a problem with that, it's really their problem not mine ๐Ÿ™‚

And by the way, I was born in 1971.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----
