You know, young people are more immature than older peoples because of lacking experience. So young people are always asked to become mature. While they become older when becoming mature.Sometimes,when the old people do something that young people do, they are thought to be not sedate.Ok,what is your opinonon? Mylot friends.

I want an older mind with a younger body. I crave that, because someone put that desire into us. I love all the experience and wisdom that I have accumulated over the decades of trial and error, of research, of talking to so many people, of reading so much but my mind doesn't work as well and I can't remember it. LOL

You summarize so well If it is from you I want to say 'Bravo" Just be what you are and enjoy the way things are "older mind with a younger body" is utopia.

Maybe we will have Utopia one day. Yes, I'm a dreamer. But some dreams do come true. I remember reading something in the Bible about the older becoming younger.

This question reminds me of Jennifer Garner's movie 13 going on 30. When I was so much younger I really wanted to be a grown up woman so I can already get a job, earn money and have all the freedom in the world. Now that I am finally earning I realized that being older also requires one to be responsible and it's not all about fun. Still I love being a grown up. It may not be all fun but I am learning a lot about life.

Yeah, that's usually the irony that existed for generations after generations. Actually, maturity is not dependent on the looks and age but most people interpreted it that way. One interesting way of gauging maturity is actually in the scenario when you are having lunch in a canteen. There are 2 tables with your friends. If you sit down in 1 of the tables and eat with your friends, after a while, a friend said he has something on and left, then another friend left until you are left alone eating lunch. Then you are actually immature. On the other hand, if before you sit down, the friends at the 2 tables are calling you to sit down in their table, then you are mature. People actually like to talk to and share with mature people. But if you are immature, people will avoid you.
