Six years ago, I posted a blog post called “How Old We Are”. I probably asked a bunch of people how old they feel after asking myself the following:
“How could an 81-year old do 21 pushups every day? My answer: “They couldn’t, so I couldn’t possibly be 81.” (By the way, I now do 30.)
So I asked some other people how old they felt. Some answers follow:
- It depends on how much sleep I got the night before.
- Ten years younger than I am.
- I’m 64, but feel 44.
- I’m 77, but mentally 50.
- I’m 75, feel 50, look 65.
- And my husband Peter responded: “Here’s the age I don’t feel I am:
Young!!!
