-Removed-I think about it all the time.
I'm not a fan.
I have drank a lot of beer in my time, along with smoking cigarettes and pretty much eating whatever I want. The only thing that has kept me from the grave thus far is that I have seriously made a lifetime effort of lifting weights to combat my bad lifestyle choices.
Also, most of the people I've known from my youth have died, it is surreal to say the least.

We who have already reached the stage of being old are usually grateful for making it this far. Ageing comes in different forms, and to be honest and sincere 🙂 , many things are better now, while others aren't. One rule though: stay away from bad things and bad people.
-Removed-Getting into situations where you know you don't belong, or where you feel uncomfortable for some reason, maybe experience. Doing things just because others do, not following your intuition. Sure, you may lose some opportunities which might have been worth a try but when in doubt, stay away. What I'm talking about is mainly relationships of all kinds.
Edit: It has been mentioned that we should try everything at least once - we don't have to do that. 🙂
-Removed-'We are the total of our choices', and can't blame others for our shortcomings. At the same time it is important to know that the choices we made then were not based on what we know today and maybe we couldn't see any other way, so we shouldn't feel guilty for doing what we did. I'm certain Ghost of a Duke can explain this better if he agrees with me. 🙂
This is what I can say about getting older. 🙂
