As an 80s kid, hitting 40 was the best thing that ever happened to me. Shit that used to matter suddenly doesn't, like you flipped a lightswitch. You get new superpowers, and they're all bitchy. I recommend it to everyone.
I remember a survey done years ago that people say 30s and 40s are the best years of their lives.
that was probably years ago
It wasn't that long ago. The survey was conducted 3-5 years ago iirc.
Seriously, I'm 41 and over the last year I've slowed slipped into fuck it mode. Don't get me wrong, I still have plenty of things I care about, but so many little things I've just stopped caring about and my life is so much more relaxed because of it. It's amazing what hitting 40 can do to your mindset.
Do you have examples of things you don't pay as much mind to anymore? I am having a hard time picturing that from just the two comments.
Girl, yes!!
