This is a weird one.
On one hand, I am in denial of my age as I train martial arts, enjoy the same sports as I did when I was 30, and stay relatively active. So, when I see most other people my age, I am pretty pleased.
On the other hand, being my vintage and trying to compete with younger training partners, there are so many things that hurt. I make old uncle noises when I stand up. The denial of getting old and frail seems like a futile battle I am slowly losing!
So, so-far-so-good but it seems to take much more work and patience to stay active and healthy and happy. Something is gonna get me!
:D
I started doing this a couple years ago. It annoys me. I have heard that it is due to the expectation of pain!
Yah man. One thing that is catching up to me no matter how active I stay, or because of the activities I do, is arthritis in my hands. No way to fight that and the doctor says tylenol. Nah.
Causes autism.
