I look young can I just lie about my age and what not?

[Telekinetic-Potato]

No, you took a loss, and you'll never get it back so you better get used to it. But you still have a lot of time left and right now even though it feels like a lot, you've only lost 10. It will be 15 before you know it. So start figuring out what you want to do with your life. Look at what Elon musk is doing in his 40's, he's only recently really letting loose.

[Asker]

I want to be young again.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

What can you do when your young that you can't do now?

You're still under 30, these are the best years.

[Asker]

Yeah turning 30 soon. They were the worst years of my life this is what I am sad about.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

My childhood sucked pretty bad. But there's a lot to look forward to and there's a ton of things you can do to work on yourself. You can go on YouTube and find an answer to practically anything. You can talk to people online, find hobbies, jobs make new friends, pick a new direction. You can reinvent yourself.

A lot of people feel like that. If you were in prison or had health problems. I feel like I lost 3 years of my life because of covid. Today is the first day of the rest of your life. You have to just try and make the most of it.

Thanks for the MHO😎

[misfittoy]

no, age is irrelevant lots of us have lost years for various reasons. make a decision to making your life better now and everyday you have breath in your lungs

[dustybiker]

Perspective. You aren’t dead yet. Get out there and stir it up.

[es20490446e]

It doesn't matter. Whatever you did is over, and you can do nothing about it.

Focus on what you are going to do from now on.

[Asker]

I feel sad. Like I may die due to depression.

Not that I would actually kill myself.

[es20490446e]

What small thing would have the greatest outcome if done right now?

[Asker]

time machine.

[es20490446e]

See that entertaining those bad feelings and time machine fantasies do nothing.

The solution is to focus on the improvement, even if small.

[boggboss]

Well u can't get them 10 years back just got to enjoy the rest

[boggboss]

How would lying about your age help

[Staximus]

Your actions and your mindset can make your life better or worse. Why not make it better?

[Ironic_Method]

Sounds like you'll appreciate the rest of it more then. I wasn't happy until I was 27.

[Asker]

I lost my entire youth.

[Ironic_Method]

I was in the same boat. I can't promise it will get better, only that it can. You still have time to enjoy a good life, even if you'll always be bitter about growing up.

[Asker]

3 versus 10 come on

[Opinion Owner]

It is never too late. Make every minute now count.

[Asker]

I am 29. I feel like my youth is over.

Make the Most of Your YOUNG LIFE. If Anything, The Biden Administration who is Crashing Our LIFE Now, Will take it away soon.

[joeldalton]

Only if you keep wallowing in the failures. Pick yourself up, put your big girl panties on, and start changing your life.

[BJP21]

Did your feet stop moving? Keep going. Dont let one bump in life stall you.

[Kuroz090]

Some of it, yes. But you still have a life. Make the most of it.

[AddylynnNightingale]

I've lost more and I'm going strong.

[Asker]

How so?

[AddylynnNightingale]

Because I don't want to give up and see what life holds. We won't know if we give up.

[Asker]

I’m old

[AddylynnNightingale]

You're going to feel like a fossil by the time you reach 40 with that mindset. We are around the same age.

[loveslongnails]

Lost? Meaning what?

[koray121]
