I just had a birthday on Monday and people kept saying say goodbye to 19. I thought it was a sad thought that I wouldn't be certain ages ever again.
If I had to redo my life I would, just to remember, not to forget, and to live with more experiences.
Would you start over again? Why, why not?
What age do you want to see again?
What was your worst age?
Why do you like that age,
Why do you hate the other age?
Personally I don't have a favorite age, because I don't think I have experienced enough, but if I had to pick it would be 19. The age I don't want is MIDDLE SCHOOL AGE! WORST TIME OF MY LIFE!

I'm 60 and I liked my 40s best, still young enough to look and act good, but smart enough to live well.
I have to agree with you, Middle School sucks. Nothing changes about that from generation to generation, too many changes happening and you take yourself too seriously.
Thirties were another time of transition looking back I see that its the last time of youthful thinking and the fact that you aren't so young isn't in your head, but its in your body.
Fifties, hmmmm, lots of losses, parents, friends, you become aware of time not being your friend, but you make peace with that.
I can't wait to see what my sixties will be like, the challenges and how I respond to them. I'm a little worried too about affording retirement and I truly hope I have my husband with me for many years. I don't know of anyone my age who doesn't have those worries. But I'm old enough to know I can get through a lot I wouldn't have though I could get through when I was younger.
And, as Martha says, "That's a Good Thing".

Currently, i am the age of 16. Surely i can't have a favorite age because i have not experienced enough and the true experiences are definetley beyond high school. If i were to go back to a certain age range i would choose my senior year of elementary school and middle school. i wish i would have enjoyed my social life more, i made many friends and really enjoyed my life, but once i hit 16, everything changed, all my friends drifted away from me and my attitde and everything changed, if only i could be 12 or 13 again. I can't pick an age i wouldn't go back to because i really miss leaving everything behind me.

Well I've only lived for 13 and a half years (not counting the first 2 since I don't remember anything.
Yes, I would start over again.
I want to go back to being 5.
My worst age was 11 (MIDDLE SCHOOL WAS HELL)
I liked it when I was 5 because, I can't explain it, long story.
I hated it when I was 11, 12, and 13 because middle school years are the worst years of everyone's lives. Seriously, kids can be so cruel.

My life hasn't been bad. It could have been richer if I did more instead of wussed out, but I don't think I would start over. Here's why not.
I think you will find that there is little that you can truly influence in life. I'm not saying things happen or they don't, but our individual styles have everything to do with how we live our lives. I tend to resist change and become complacent. There are things I would have done differently but there's nothing I can't still do. Unless I was reborn as a different person, I don't think much would change, even if I knew what had happened before. It's difficult to overcome whatever personality traits may hold us back.

I'm 22. I don't feel like it though cuz I never really lived on my own. I still feel pretty young, but not when I'm compared to others my age. They are all still partying and stuff, which I did enough of when I was underage, lol. That's old hat.
I wish I could go back to.....when I was 17 and 18. And I would've fiished high school if I could go back.
I'd never wanna go back to when I was 12-14 cuz that was hard.
