@CrystalW I didn't feel like an adult until this year or so.... no definite moment unless you count people's children suddenly being in high school when just yesterday they were being born. I think I'm having a quarter life crisis... as though it's all over when I turn thirty.... I guess everyone grows up when their twenties are falling behind them.

That's what you think when you're approaching 30, and then when you're approaching 40 you think, "boy I was a child when I was approaching 30..." So I suspect it just kind of keeps going, the increase in wisdom is outpacing our expectation of ourselves.

@rohit. I wish you a most Happy Birthday on this auspicious day. May your efforts to turn the wheel of Dhamma be blessed with success.
The quality of your Life, depends on the quality of your Mind.
Old enough to have to sometimes take a second to remember how old I am now.
Fifty-nine.
I'm 61 years old, but I only feel like I'm 60.
What about before stardust?
62
There was Bowie....
Physically, 17 and I hope to carry on with my journey for a very long time...
I think I might be 23 after a couple of days.
But I've already stopped counting.
Physically 21, but mentally I'm still 16.
