For members age 50+ can you share your life experiences??

[sanction]

For privacy reasons, I won't share my age, but I am somewhere along the lines of approaching middle age.

Anyways, I always find it insightful to read posts and stories from members 50+, because it comes with priceless knowledge, wisdom, and experience about life.

Especially when it is shared in such a raw and unfiltered way on this forum. It provides valueable insights, that simply can't be easily found in the real world, since most people are putting on a mask.

For members 50+, would you be kind to share some experiences about life, if life is worth living, thoughts on CTB, and etc.

May also be helpful for some younger members on here, that are lost and confused about life

Ha. Middle age starts at age 25 and goes until 50. Birth to 25 is young, and 50 onward is old. That's based on average life expectancy of 75 years (75 ÷ 3 = 25 year increments that correspond to young, middle age, old).

My life has been at a standstill for the past 30 years really. Nothing what I would consider good has happened to me. Just "normal" everyday stuff like work, eat, pay taxes, piss, and shit. That's really it. A lot of life is spent taking care of yourself like washing yourself, feeding yourself, elimating waste from yourself. You're basically forced to earn money to care for a body that starts deteriorating right from the moment (that's when aging starts and time only moves in one direction) that a spermatozoon and an ovum got together to start creating you. If you let the natural aging process take place, 9/10 you come "full circle" - from shitting in your pants when you're an infant to shitting in your pants when you're old and decrepit. Then you die and become sustenance in multiple forms to support new emerging life in the endless cycle.

How do you start a thread with "I'm not going to share my age for privacy reasons" and then ask people to reveal their age by posting their experiences as being 50+?

That asked... I don't know what you want older people to share exactly. If you've been reading posts already (as indicated in the post) from older forum members, then you've probably already seen what you wanted to see.
