no one can ever make me feel bad about ageing, because are u dumb?

Exactly like when I turned 30 I was so elated and I felt so beautiful and I was just thankful that I actually made it to another year and another decade of life as someone who was born with a heart condition and then later in life attempted suicide I am grateful for the days

Every year I turn is a blessing. I’m not scared of wrinkles or saggy skin, they are the testament that I have lived

I always think this, like would you rather die prematurely???

I used to think getting old was the worst then, my best friend died at 20 .... he never had kids, finished college. Never actually seen himself as a full-grown functioning adult..... Dying, that young is terrible... Take care of yourself and grow as old as you can.

Growing older is a privilege

Ageism is rooted in pdfilia. Anyone, even the kids, who call anyone over the age of 18 or 20 or 25 “old,” are encouraging and engaging in that pdfilic mindset. Are we supposed to die as children? Also, why are we trying to look as young as children. We’re not children. Strange…

Being alive is a pretty big flex

Not enough of us are thinking this way

Proud to be 37.

this is going to change the way i look at it

It's the stupidest thing to complain about growing up 😂

Same! I've lost friends in their 20's and early 30's, I'm not taking aging for granted

Good point, I am unc now but man the internet love to focus on your age when you're older lol, thank God I made it to unc status

Yaaassss! Whenever someone complains about age or tries to age shame me, I say…I’m the goal hunny! What’s your alternative, to not be here? Then they stfu

It’s jst a number the number of years you’ve been on this earth. That’s it, now If you look like that number that’s different that’s your fault. Take care of yourself better

She is not wrong

Hallelu!

Most of this,I can even agree to but,I feel it's much better to enjoy it cuz you actually still just wanna live life,as opposed to cuz y'know,someone else didn't make it. We can leave them out of our reasons for being joyful. It sounds really disrespectful,to just be blunt.😮‍💨🥴

My sister died at 34 I’m thankful for everyday

Yeah seen a lot of ageist BS up on X as of lately.. personal attacks from retards that think they are exempt from aging and think because you turn a certain age you aren't allowed an opinion etc.. the mental retardation is hard with those people. Like are you are seriously delusional... we are born to die its that simple. Get a fkn clue! You will not live forever and you will never be better looking then your youthful days etc. We are supposed to age and our views on life and topics are suppose to change as we experience life on our own terms. Life experiences vary and therefore opinions are just that nothing more. Opinions are not based on facts. Ugh its just so upsetting because older people have so much knowledge and experience and most have been programmed to think they are of no use its just so sickening.

Amen sister!!! I’m 45. My little bro died at 35. Every day is a blessing. Every wrinkle, every gray hair? A reminder. I am alive! I am blessed & GRATEFUL. “Do not resent growing old, many are denied the privilege.” — Irish proverb

SAY SO NOW✨️

i knew a girl who died the summer before entering 9th grade. i think of her constantly.

I feel like a lot of people would stop the quarter life crisis of "wasting your youth" I'd people stopped worrying about aging cause when I was 17 I was worrying about running out of time and now that I'm 19 I know just how young I am and I wish others my age realized it too

thank you soul contract. if you leave before it's completed, you're sent back or you'll reincarnate when your avatar is too damaged since your soul made the choice to come to earth. you're here to find out why you made your choice.

My mind set changed about aging when my sister died at 24 🥲

Wow, I really need this. I'm turning 30 in two months, and I've always hid my age, but now I want to embrace it. Many people haven't lived to see that age. I'm going to celebrate it. One of my classmates passed away a few weeks ago just shy of their 30th birthday.

Black don't crack anyway

My mom says the alternative of aging is death..

Honestly, this is my mindset. I love my best friend at 22, so everyday is blessing I don't deserve.

This is how i feel. N whenever i meet someone who doesn’t get it i explain this to them

AND I DID!!!

Lol. Honestly I’m just mad excited to here
