Just a number and a state of mind as long as your healthy and enjoying life numbers changing doesn’t matter after all I know people in their 30s&40s who seem miserable all of the time they want everything don’t know how to get it keeps getting them down if only they knew how to enjoy what they have

Getting older doesn't bother me at all.

It's the speed that time seems to go by now that freaks me out a bit.

The middle point between the fall of the Berlin Wall and now is 2007.

The time between the fall of the Berlin Wall and the finale of The Sopranos is the same amount of time from the finale of The Sopranos to now.

How mad is that?

Getting older , yes you become invisible , yet a little fitness and a positive mind, you can still achieve loads, with a mindset of never giving up, and those small goals you have no need to show,confident in your own abilities!...😊👍

I was dreading it but I had a fantastic week when I turned 50. Took the week off and got to spend time with the special people in my life. Do what makes you happy 😊

It's worth exploring. It showcased O'Riada's vision for what traditional music could be. It was one of the driving forces of change that brought traditional music to where it is now.
