Thoughts on Turning 50
I turn 50 in June.
As a kid, I believed people who lived to be fifty were old. Now, I find myself on the brink of turning 50, an age considered ancient and out of touch by kids today. Granted, as we age, we like to lessen the burden of aging by calling 50 the new 40, or 40 the new 30. And if you live to be 80, I don't care what you say, there isn't anything new about that.
