Anonymous Coward User ID: 83540441 United States 06/20/2022 02:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Oh I'm 70 now, I got old blah blah blah. I think to myself, I am going to live to 125 and look young. NO ONE can believe how old I am when I tell them.. because I stopped aging around 50. Also, I never became obsessed with my looks. So I have no wrinkles I think all the BEAUTY TREATMENTS START with a MIND you are old and ugly... so you become OLD AND UGLY LOOKING and then need to see a dr to fix it. Every time you buy FACE CREAM and put it on, you are again saying you are old at the same time. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 41173011 United States 06/20/2022 02:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This is me, I was born in western Kansas sometime between 1950 and 1960 according to federal census. I was an unregistered home birth. I was told parents were killed in car accident somewhere in Oklahoma, year unknown I survived and “given’ to an old couple (no relations) when I tried to go into military all they could find was census and that I was about 3 in that 1st census, it was estimated to be “approximately” correct. But didn’t say son but other. No last name except head of households. No adoption papers, or other documents. No official documents until military where they used my “care takers” last name. And issued me a social security number and service number, they allowed me to pic a birthdate as long as the year was 1953. In recent year I have done DNA testing, have found some distant cousins but could tell me nothing other than we are related. |

If your spirit doesn't care about the calendar age, if your soul keeps being alive to the fullest, the body responds with rejuvenated cells and systems. And yes, you look "younger" to the relative perspective viewer. I am constantly meeting people younger than my physical age that look way older than me, and whenever someone decides to estimate, says somewhere between 10 and 15 ( sometimes even more ) years less than the circulations around the nearest star are.

Quite suddenly, I had a realization I was “me”, in what I considered, a baby’s body. There was nothing I could do after wishing I was not there. Over time, I forgot who I was the time before then, ‘er I mean now. . |
