On my way home from work today I had a memory of my mom back when I was 15 and she was 35 (35 being the exact same age I am now). I realized I am nowhere near the same maturity level she was at my age. I still feel like I'm in my 20's and sometimes younger. I know I don't FEEL 35 yet I'm feeling like I should maybe consider "growing up". But why? Do we all REALLY ever grow up? I love the way I feel, I love feeling young around my kids. I still even listen to a top 40 radio station, mainly because I love the morning group (they are all in their late 20's) and by doing so I know what songs are "in" right now. I'm actually on Facebook and Twitter (which my husband thinks is childish btw), I even LOVE Twilight! I'm reading the whole saga again for the second time (you know getting ready for the sequal that will be out on Friday, Nov. 20th) SEE??!?!?! Is this stuff I should know??
Oh, well...maybe I'll consider maturing a year or two.....SIKE!!!

I still feel like I did when I was in my 20s. Plus, now, I'm in better shape, have more energy and (I think) look better than I did even ten years ago.
ReplyDeleteI struggle with the age/maturity issue ALL.THE.TIME. From what clothes to wear (Is this too young?) to the music/books/movies that interest me.
My brother and I were laughing one weekend when we realized that he is the same age (41) that my mother was when he got married. His oldest son is 15. I'll be thinking the same thing when I'm 41 and my oldest will only be 13! Yikes!
