Random Rant

Attention People: Stop saying that 40 is the new 30, 30 is the new 20, 50 is the 40, etc. That mess is annoying. What's with people subtracting 10 years off their current age? They must be trying to relive their glory years. Granted, you have some 40-somethings that look younger, but that's rare. Genetics and lifestyle choices play a role. For example, I have a Facebook friend who's 42, but you wouldn't know it because she takes exceptionally great care of herself: eats right, works out, and good genetics. Add plastic surgery and the oldest person can look as young as they want. You won't catch me saying 33 is the new 23, or some other craziness. I have a different mindset at 33, than I had at 23. See, the difference between me and most people is that I embrace getting older, because with age comes wisdom. The Bible speaks on this subject: When I was a child, I spoke, thought and acted as a child. When I became a man, I put away childish things. That tells me you can be a certain age, but still act childish. Look at some of these so-called adults; you would never know some of them are grown, but let them tell it. Childish behaviors: name-calling, tantrums, gossiping, etc. I expect that from kids and teenagers, because they don't know any better. This whole 30 is the new 20 mess is comical. What would you want to relive? You were the man in high school. You don't want to grow up because you'll have responsibilities. For me, I'm about moving forward and not going back because Lord knows I've been through a lot in life. My later days will be better than my former. The monikers people come up with on their free time...
