Is twenties supposed to be the best years of one’s life?
I remember when I was younger I always thought that by a certain age everything would just fall into place. Any little new knowledge and older people’s experiences and stories were so exciting and we would look forward to that. Then by the age of 15-16 I thought that a beautiful, stress-free, joyous and fun life along with a great career in my chosen field, living in a nice place in my favourite part of the city, a great start to a happy married life with the woman of my dreams, all that, is just 10 years away and everything was going to be just perfect in 10 years time. In other words, so much was expected to be accomplished in the twenties.
I still have some journey left through my 20s and when I hear people say “twenties should be the best years of your life” I wonder if these are the best years, then what is there to look forward to? I mean, don’t get me wrong, I have achieved a lot and I am happy with my life for the most part. I have overcome a lot of challenges and obstacles. But looking at twenties from my own expectations of my teen years and from what others (mostly older people) say about twenties, I don’t agree with twenties being the best years. Because I hope for and look forward to even better years.
Share your experiences of different phases of age and life in general.
Only because by that time everyone reaches thier limits of power… by 35 even the best are finished… max power years are 50’s after that death is staring you in the face… unless you’ve got good health.
I'm in my 30s and life is great (MashaAllah) 20s sucked for me, except now sometimes I don't have the energy to enjoy it all :p..... but yes, I love my life right now ..... it differs from person to person though, depends a lot on how much you've achieved, how mature you are, whats your outlook towards life, what do you consider happiness, etc. etc.
my childhood..i dun even want to think about it..and if given option,i would never want it back..
then from 18-23, life had been a bit kind to me, i enjoyed my uni and college days but still it wasnt that good...there were many ups and downs..infact more downs..
then the last year was the most pathetic year of my life that changed my life entirely and the incident that will gonna effect all my life ... it was full of regrets,broken friendships and relations, tears, sadness, depression and the list goes on....
and now life is a bit better but all the time am in the fear of losing control over it, many uncertainties exist, at times i dunno what life wants out of me and what has it stored for me...
I believe your years will be as good as you make them...doesnt matter if you're 20 or 35 or 45...enjoy yourself and put your best foot forward...always.
Infact,there is no precise age as being the sweetest. You live to the fullest of each and every moment and each and every age will the sweetest for you.
I am sure I will be an ever green star even at the age of 100 and +
I have enjoyed every year of my life Mashallah till now and what I have at my hands (my little family), I am looking forward to coming days and not past....
