Please define old

age is relative....I know many YOUNG 50 year olds, and MANY OLD 14 year olds.

What is sad is we do not respect, or seem to want our elders as they do in European, Asian, African, or South American cultures. That has always bothered me.

No Yenta, you are not old....you are just beginning!

yes, yenta, if you live to be 100, you are just middle-aged.

My mom is 47 and she's definitely not old. She has some gray hairs and is feeling a few aches that she didn't before but that doesn't mean that she's rolling over and dying, just slowly maturing.

BTW: Albin is a decade or so older than I am.

According to merriam webster old is "dating from the remote past", "distinguished from an object of the same kind by being of an earlier date", "having existed for a specified period of time", "of, relating to, or originating in a past era"...&& many more definations!

Yenta, perhaps your reading vision is diminished because your love for bww. Age is just a number. Channel the energies from your inner age, and don't let other people judege you. (Just don't be one of those scary people who are 50 that dress like they are 15. *shudder*)

"You're 26, right...that's old!" I love little kids that don't know any better. Except I'm not 26, and little 6 year old just don't have any concept of time.

But hey, a little gray hair coverage never hurt anyone.

You are old when you consider Metamucil a condiment.

Getting older and being old are two different things. My grandmother was old woman when she was 50. My mom is 72 and you can't keep her down, the woman is a dynamo.

Age is a state of mind.
