I was recently scrolling through my friend list on Facebook and found such a great thought on John's (my friend) profile picture. It made me think for a while but at the same time smile! :) So here it is, the Diamond Thought #3:

"Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter."


That's a quote by Mark Twain, an American writer, humorist, entrepreneur, publisher, and lecturer.

Here is Mark with his thought:

It makes me realize that no matter how old I will get it's actually just all in my head (even rhymed). Always a young soul with a fresh mind... And I choose that, I like that, what about you?

Hope you got some VALUE out of this πŸ’Ž Thought #3! Stay tuned for more DT's coming up soon!

What is a Diamond Thought? It is a quote, an idea or simply a thought taken from someone like great motivators, actors, scientists etc. that gives a lesson, a meaning, an answer for a greater improvement in life.

Some great points here. Even though i'm only 28, I really don't like birthdays anymore. I'm actually thinking about writing a post about it. I have a serious fear of ageing both physically and mentally. I need to find a way to tackle it!

It is all in your head. Age is just a number, and you shouldn't make that bother you too much. You have a bigger life to face than panicking about how old you are or would be. It's okay to be afraid, but it is not okay to stay afraid.
Thumbs up man @wild-forest

I couldn't say it better than you did, @slimsieris! You deserve an upvote for sure. We should not be afraid of time moving forward, it has to. But we should be afraid of wasting our time inefficiently and that's a good thing.

Thank you Sir. And thank you again for this great post

Very good blog about age and its feelings. If you have nice and young feelings then you never be old in any age.

I see you know it! Keep up :)

thank you very much my dear friend.

Hm, I think that you could apply that logic to many problems - if you don't mind, it doesnt matter. Sometimes the main problem is that we can not accept some things, while we may "don't mind" those things and accept them, that is right :)

That's a very good point you have mentioned! It has to do with our subjective world and ego if we mind about something or someone :)

Thanks for the post. It’s easy to get caught up in feeling older, but age is what you make of it. Except for hangovers, those definitely get worse with age.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, @pdxlove!

Done

Age is just a number...

Whoa!

Nice to meet you and thank you for your kind words @onewithearth! Will stop by your blog anytime soon. Followed :)

Pls can i get a resteem

John's is great ,, he can be an inspiration to everyone ...
I am very fascinated ....

Probably yes, he can :) Thanks for taking your time!

Okay....

You could tell people 10 years elder as your real age, people will be surprised and you got younger feeling. :)

Haha, now that's a way to hack minds :)))

I felt old since I was about 8 years old (yes, yes). I tried to avoid birthday parties and all, and about 2 weeks before every birthday I started becoming more and more gloomy. I'm not sure what happened, but around age 25 I decided that it's stupid to keep thinking about how old I am, when I can have so much fun instead. So now I just do whatever I like and have fun on my birthday, and I so don't care about my real age that sometimes I forget how old exactly I am (my birthday is in a month, and I've been telling people I'm 36 for about 6 months now, without realizing that no, I still have a while to go).
You're as young as you feel. No matter what everyone else tells you :-)

Thank you for sharing your thoughts! :) Loved your line "You're as young as you feel." Keep enjoying your life! And sorry for late response... :)
