How do you know when you are getting OLD?

Answer 1

Well. I personally don't think you have to get old unless you just decide to give up. Age is a number and a state of mind. My Mom is 83 and can run circles around me. Her age in numbers is old, but she isn't. I knew I was getting older when I started saying things like "why do kids do such and such"...I thought oh no stop this right now. I don't plan on ever getting old mentally.
