I've taken to saying,

I'm older than book Frodo when he left the Shire to destroy the Ring.

Sometimes, when meeting people online in casual ways (like answering a question or providing a resource) I sense an eagerness to chat and be friendly from someone I also sense is quite young. I get along well with young people and I don't have a problem with it. But I think many young people also think every person they're talking to is a peer and they think I'm a 15 year old as well. It worries me just a little, I think some are so open and trusting. But I always want them to be clear that I am an adult. Pretty harmless but not a peer. So I use that little phrase to explain that.

I'm the

35 dude.....kind of a no where age....an in-between age....it is that age you realize you are not old yet (old is now 93), but you are also not quite young enough to do what you used to. Like be out until 3:30 am everynight at clubs or playing pick-up hockey all night and still get up for work in the morning and be functional! Still young...but not that young. There is a saying....you can only be young once, but you can be immature forever.

The audacious proposal stirred his heart. And the stirring became a song, and it mingled with the songs of Gil-galad and Celebrian, and with those of Feanor and Fingon. The song-weaving created a larger song, and then another, until suddenly it was as if a long forgotten memory woke and for one breathtaking moment the Music of the Ainur revealed itself in all glory. He opened his lips to sing and share this song. Then he realized that the others would not understand. Not even Mithrandir given his current state of mind.

That's an interesting bell curve.

I'm 52.

Last night my dad was talking about the family getting together for Mother's Day and said he didn't want to travel because "Your mother and I are getting old." She said "I'm not." They're both approaching 80 and she's almost completely disabled with Parkinson's and he takes care of her. But good for her that she claims not to be getting old :-) When she turned 61 she said she was reversing it and celebrating her "sweet 16" birthday. Dad said last night that at 79 that strategy wasn't working out as well.

Online stuff is so interesting.

My daughter was devastated a few years ago when one of her online friends died. This was someone who had been writing slash in the fanfiction.net website. My daughter thought the other woman was maybe 20 years old. Turns out she was in her mid eighties, and was writing slash because she had a gay great-grandson (!)

It just goes to show how unimportant biological age really is, once you get past your mid-teens or so. Online we meet people spirit-to-spirit, and things like age, race, gender, disability, appearance and so on don't get in the way unless we invite them to.

But now I'm plain ol' 43.

But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man, for precisely the same reasons. -- Douglas Adams

Interestingly, that is the age my mother was when she had her first child (me). She then had two more in two years. She is about to turn 84 at the end of this month. I heard somewhere that the ability to carry a child to term at an older maternal age indicates the mother will likely have a long life. Well, she's at least one instance where that is true. She also is very independent, lives alone and drives a car. She occasionally babysits my brother's kids, but as they are 9 and 10 years old, we joke that they are baby sitting her. Tongue

Most people peg me at somewhere in the early 40s, so it's fun to announce my real age to them. One of the advantages of living in the Pacific Northwest all my life: no sun damage to skin! And I seem to be following in my dad's footsteps; he began to go grey around 60, and I'm just starting. My parents are still going strong (Mom will be 90 this fall, Dad plays tennis three times a week), so I figure I'm barely halfway through my life. Way too soon to be old.

''What connects Nature to the spiritual, or requires the presence of the latter? In positive terms, as Alkis Kontos points out, when nature was still largely experienced as integral, alive and active, 'It was the spiritual dimension of the world, its enchanted, magical quality that rendered it infinite, not amenable to complete calculability; spirit could not be quanified; it permitted and invited mythologization.' And I would add, it still is and does.''

Ugh

I just turned 37 four days ago. People always mistake me for much younger than I am: my age has been guessed to be anywhere from 17 (just the other day!!) to 32. I have very dark hair, and have been going gray for a while; luckily, the gray is mostly underneath, so it's not very visible. Soon, though, I'll have to start colouring my hair. I have decent skin; in fact, while I have no wrinkles, I still get the occasional zit! Is that fair at my age, I ask you?? Mad

I'm in pretty good shape physically; I work out, so I haven't gotten "middle-age spread" or anything like that. But what really affects how I look, and how old I look, I think, is my level of happiness. I have 2 photos of myself taken just days apart; one was at a gig (I'm in a band) & one was on the way to a family function (a good one, not a funeral). The family function-me looks like she could be the gig-me's mother. I kid you not. (Spilling my guts here:) The only thing that brings me any real happiness here is my band, and to be honest, it's not enough. I must move to NZ and/or Australia (but I think NZ) as soon as possible!!! Not because LoTR was filmed there, either, but because when I was in NZ & Aus, both countries felt like home to me in a way that the US never has. Since I've been back in the States (almost a year & a half) I've felt desperate to go back home... to NZ & Australia. Anyway, to bring this sort of back on topic, I feel that being here, unhappy, is aging me! Unsure

It is not defeated by the ways of the world, for it does not come from experience, but from our nature and First Being. If we are indeed the Eruhin, the Children of the One, then He will not suffer Himself to be deprived of His own, not by any enemy, not even by ourselves.

I am 14 going on 15. Religiously, 15. Wink

haha! I'm not alone! I am as well 14 going on 15 :)

And I agree. Many more young people will be apt to sign up in the coming months/few years due to The Hobbit coming out�

31 going on 32

I'll be 32 on June 7th, but I've had that problem of being mistaken for younger for years. In fact, a couple of years ago, I got carded at a bar for ordering a sparkling water. The guy I just started a relationship with thought I was a few years younger than him, but I'm really two years older.

I'm sure I'll appreciate looking younger than my age as I get older. It can be hard when people mistake me for being a teenager. Sometimes they don't take me very seriously because of that, not realizing that I'm highly educated and I've experienced a great many things that some people twice my age haven't done. But then, it gives me a great deal of empathy for teens and how people will often assume the worst of them without really giving them a chance to show who they really are.

Age is really relative. I don't feel particularly old, and I don't feel particularly young. I think the most important thing is whether you feel good in your skin or not. I know I'm much happier with myself at almost 32 than I was when I was 16.

LOL!

Yep, don't we all - and I wish the "younger" feeling stayed around longer than the "older"! Laugh

Ah, but as Aunt Dora said, you're "in your prime". Wink

(And bearagorn is 4 x 11 - does that make him a square in his prime? Angelic

On the other hand

my father-in-law is 94 and his hair is still black. Go figure.

I know a woman whose hair was silver by the time she was in her thirties, and it looked beautiful.

Your vote still didn't record,

so I added it for you.

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron�s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded b*****d with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

Maybe if I scrolled down a little and read "vote" it would work better. See, learn something every day. Sly
