Real Age and how young you really are

I did a "Real Age" Test where they calculate your age based on your lifestyle. They use a point system. I have no idea what the base year is but basically if you have a pet, you become younger but if you use your mobile phone often that ages you.

My "Real Age" is 22.

When I did a physiological test, where they measured Heart Rate at Rest, fat %, bone density, muscle mass, fitness level, I am 17. Basically, it means that I can have the calorie intake of a 17 year old since I have the metabolic age of a 17 year old. I am juvenile at times, yes.

What age do you feel? And what age do you want to be at?

Some of us will auto return to a time when all is fine. When all is possible. Our "Golden Age". For sweet little young things, it could have been high school. For the late bloomers, it could be university. For some of us though, that "Golden Age" has not happened yet.

Which could be a good thing, since it keeps us looking forward...

OR not. Since we have nothing to "fall back" on. OUCH!

The danger is when we trap ourselves in that "'Golden Age" and refuse to let time mould us. You get child stars trapped in the bodies of alcoholic 40 year olds, or 60 year old F1 racer wannabes in their Porsches and Maseratis. We will chase down our "Golden Age" mercilessly. Our entire life is for that recreation and preservation of that time we really felt like a million bucks!

Out of touch with reality? Maybe?

Escapism? Definitely!

My Golden Age was when i had just graduated from Uni. I was on a mat on a beach somewhere .. with my girlfriends.. painting brilliant pictures of our futures.. one finger pointing to the sky drawing imaginary visions of what happiness lay before us... I remember laughter at the joke, that is Life.. Sugar glazed promises.. The air was sweet and you could feel everything at any one time... because that is what Destiny is supposed to feel like..
