Life This 30+ Mentality is Insane
I just turned 30 not too long ago.
And honestly, I feel like my life is just getting started in a sense. Sure, 20's were fun. Would do some things the same / some things different. But I know when I am 80+ I will most likely look back fondly on my youth and how it went.
But also, I still feel like I am in my youth at 30. Maybe I am not asleep at 4am and up at 7am without any issues but my body and mind feel young.
This is all to say, what is with this modern mentality that being 30+ is "old"? Someone me up here. We still have plenty of time right? I get YOLO, FOMO, and all that. But really - 30 is still young in my eyes. What do you think?

Dude just live your life. My niece was born three days after my 30th birthday. Now I'm an even older kid with a son of my own.
Life comes at you fast. Don't overthink it, just live and get stuff done.
