Today is my mother's bday and she has been saying that 49 (her age as of today) is scarier than 50.
What is your "scary" age? Do you even care about reaching a certain age? Have you already passed it? What is it like on the other side? I had a friend that grew up thinking of life only up to 22. She said she hadn't really pictured what life might be like after that. Mine was 18. I remember thinking I could. not. grasp. the idea of living outside my parent's care. I actually was a dependent for 4 years after that, while in college, but lived on campus and quickly got used to the idea of not having to go home to them every day.
