Ok, I think the most part of you are younger than me and so you can't understand what I'm feeling sometimes, but I'm pretty sure many steemians are my same age or more and so they KNOW what I'm saying when I say I'm realizing I'm not so young. ^_^
Yes, the time passes, the clock is ticking, etc.
Don't worry, it's just the awareness of my age. Sometimes, even if just for some minutes, I think to be just 30 years old (my "golden" age ^_^) and so I do the same things that I did at that time, but it's not the same, believe me!
For example, now I can't dance all night long in the Disco wearing a fantastic couple of high heel , I really can't do it because I'm so tired just after I danced 1 (one) song at home wearing my flip-flops!
Sure, when I was 30 years old I wore high heels every day and I loved so much them, but now I prefer to wear low comfortable shoes because my feet seems to be older than me and after a couple of hours wearing high heels they start to scream "Help!" ! ^_^
Just another example happened yesterday:
we was with a couple of friends in a restaurant for dinner. There was many many people, many young people because we started to eat late, at the 10pm, so it was noisy. Too noisy for people like us (between 47 and 65 years old) and so we can't hear what we were saying each other. When I was 30 years old I didn't take care of noise, hot weather or cold weather, but now it's different: I don't like place where there are many many people, sometimes I feel too much warm and sometimes I feel too much cold, I became a "vecchia ciabatta" (an italian way to speech that means "old slipper". It's not good, but like in every tale there is an happy end:
after that dinner (we ate an excellent pizza!) we went to the house of our friend to drink a glass of Calvados and Calvados is really a great way to spend awesome time chatting with friends, without thinking to the age ;)
See ya soon and steem on!
