What does it feel like to be 50 years old or older?
I'm 17 i cant even imagine what it must feel like to have been on planet earth for that long of a time

Age 72. It feels great. History is coming full circle, and repeating itself. For me, it's like deja vu.
?
I'm now 78, and I can't imagine what it feels like to have been on planet earth for that long, I'm not even sure that I have been on earth all that time. In fact, I'm not sure that's where I am now. I'm a stranger in a strange land.

I hope you live to twice that age
50 was nothing
At 50 i was in the best shape of my life.
I had lost 90 pounds by eating right and walking several miles a day.
I was climbing mountain trails and going on the long mountain trails that i hadn't been able to do since i was in High School.
I was taking ZERO meds and all my levels were normal.
50 felt like my peak because i had the same level of energy and stamina as when i was 18 yet my level of knowledge and skills were light years beyond.
I was still climbing 300ft cell towers and designing electronic circuits and inventing new methods and circuit designs.
I would play 18 holes of par 4 golf WALKING then take a water break then go 18 more.
I was still driving the ball 250 yards with a 1 iron so i never needed to carry a driver in the bag.
My eyes and ears were still as good as at 18 and my reflexes just as fast.
Never missed a day at work and rarely ever got sick.
While others getting yearly flu shots and the youngsters were all getting sick i never got so much as a sniffle.
The only few times i ever got the flu it only lasted a few hours and i just worked right through it.
50 is easy, now if i reach 70 and can still say all those things, then THAT would be something exceptional.

Ha!!!Ha!!!Ha!!! I'm 79 years of age, and just keep going!!! I keep away from Doctors(Medical Practitioners) , they are dangerous ; 'licenced to kill'.
I can still ride my bicycle, walk 10 miles together, answer questions on Yahoo. As for women/females?????

Speaking for myself as a fifty-three year old, I feel I have missed lots of opportunities through not being able to perceive them, and that politics went the wrong way in 1979 and has never recovered. There's also way less space travel than I was expecting. But it's wonderful to be a grandparent.
