<\/a>People have different feelings towards what they feel about their age, and when remembering their age. Sometimes, it is positive and sometimes it is in a negative way.<\/p>\nRowida Nagi says, \u201cWhen I remember my age, I think that I\u2019m still young, by the way, I\u2019m 8 years old and that I still have a long way ahead of me.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yakeen Bazzi says, \u201cWhen I think of my age, I think of creativity. We have so many things we can do at this point.\u201d Yakeen started to think about others, and Yakeen says, \u201cMany people in my age always think of the negativity when they are near my age.\u201d Age can affect many people depending on their positivity or negativity.<\/p>\n
Mr.Saleh says \u201cWhen I think of, or remember my age, I think that I may be 72 years old, but there is a saying that age is just a number and that you have to appreciate it.\u201d As you see, age isn\u2019t something you have to worry about, because no matter the number, you’re always yourself and it should stay that way.<\/p>\n
Many people misunderstand each other based on their age or their appearance (kids, teens, adults, or the elderly).<\/p>\n
Rowida Nagi may still be young, but the challenges are still coming. Rowida recalls, \u201cYes, many people misunderstood me for how young and small I looked. For example, is when I go to the store with my parents, and when I get to the cashier and pay they would always ask, \u201cAren’t you too young?\u201d I don’t like it, but everyone has to deal with what\u2019s coming.\u201d<\/p>\n
Yakeen Bazzi also had people who sometimes treated her differently according to her age. Yakeen Starts by saying \u201cNo, Not really it\u2019s just the differences in age in our family are different, but that\u2019s the only problem.\u201d Yakeen starts to explain, Yakeen says, “It’s always when my cousins are over. I have a lot of cousins, who are younger than me by a lot, and so because the adults are always having their own conversation, and that means I have to stay with the little kids. It gets really annoying!\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr.Saleh says, \u201cYes, many people misunderstood me for how old I look and my age. An example is when I was with my grandchildren and was playing volleyball with them. I did get some good and bad stares and hear some whispers here and there. Talking about what was I doing with a group of young and strong kids playing volleyball. But that didn\u2019t bother me, because, in my mind, I was thinking that you\u2019re never too old for anything!\u201d<\/p>\n
Make sure to show who you are by your maturity and not your age. It doesn\u2019t matter how many birthdays have passed. It’s always you that’s inside and it should always stay like that. You\u2019re Never too old to have fun and go on Adventures. Always remember that age is just a number, and that can never change that.<\/p>\n
“Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don\u2019t mind, it won’t matter.”<\/p>\n
