I don't mind it either. A lot of calm comes with aging. But I guess I don't see celebrities as creatures that age because they are always the same age in the movies I know them for xD silly, I know. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] Jake_Farm@sopuli.xyz 1 point 2 months ago (2 children) Maybe that will eventually hapoen to me but not yet. I know I am objectively different from when I was an 18 year old but I don't feel different. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Nangijala@feddit.dk 2 points 2 months ago I wonder what that feels like. I mean, yeah, I have kept my inner child alive too, but I don't feel remotely the same from when I was 18, which in my case is a positive. I have better people around me now, I feel a lot freer and like I can be myself now than when I was 18. I understand the world on a deeper level. I am more accepting and patient. I am less angry and I'm gradually building selfworth, which I didn't have at all at 18. I like aging because I continue to grow towards the person I want to be in life, and not being forced to be someone I'm not by people who don't care about me. I don't think there's anything wrong about feeling the same as you did when your were young. I just can't relate myself because my experience is that life is not just one continous journey, but multiple births and deaths of the soul. I'm going through a death right now where I know that once I'm out on the other side of all these challenges, things are gonna be so nice, but right now I'm saying goodbye to who I was these past ten years which is kinda rough, because overall, I really liked this decade of my life and it was a lot better than any prior decade before it. I hope it makes sense xD permalink fedilink source parent [–] 1984@lemmy.today 2 points 2 months ago* Even old people feel like maybe 30 inside. It's weird looking at your aged body and feeling like a young guy in your mind. More mature, more wise from life, but otherwise the same. Less emotional drama, which is very nice. permalink fedilink source parent
