This happens when you get older than 30. Life gets so busy with work, family, and everything in between that you honestly lose track of your own age. You don’t keep count anymore because it’s not the exciting countdown it used to be. And once you hit 35, the excitement of getting older disappears fast. You’d rather stay young, feel young, and not deal with all the things that come with aging.
Let’s be real, getting older kind of sucks. That’s when the random aches and pains start showing up for no reason. You bend down to tie your shoes and your back says no. You wake up in the morning and your knees sound like bubble wrap. And suddenly you’re at the doctor more often than you ever thought you’d be, talking about things you swore you’d never have to worry about.
On top of that, there’s the forgetfulness. And not just the little things, but sometimes your own age. Call it early dementia, call it being busy, whatever it is, it happens. Someone asks how old you are, and you pause, do some quick math, and still feel like the number they give you can’t possibly be right. Share this birthday meme to someone who forgets their birthday.
