First of all whatever your age, try to embrace life.
One's numerical age is a marker of time spent here on planet Earth. What you do with your time, makes you who you are.
I used to say that I *wasted* ten years of my life, from age 18-28. I don't believe that anymore.
My life has changed, I've learned some, but I have much more to learn.
I wouldn't want to go back. No, no.
I've earned these 43 years and I wear them quite happily.
I too, am struck by the angst that so many of the younger folks here go through.
But growing older doesn't mean no more angst-- it's a different kind of angst (as others have mentioned) and you've had some time to learn how to better cope.
Bottom line. I've met some very wise 25 year olds and some really dumb 45 year olds. In some ways, age is merely a number and truly, life is what you make it.
