    Just wanted to say that I don't think middle age is until you are 45... 30's no way, lol. I'm 58 and by your definition am ready for old age, the senior center. Actually I can join some senior centers at 57. Just kidding you all, but wanted to tell you not to make yourself older than you are before it happens.

    I often wondered what middle age really meant. The "normal" expected life span is 70, so I guess 35 is half (or middle) of 70. Right now I'm three quarters of 70.

    3/4 x 70 = 210/4 = 52.5

    Really? Just 70? I think in many western countries we can look forward to more than that:)

    Sorry, now looking here again.

    Didn't realize I got people depressed over that post. But please note I put "normal" in quote marks. I know many people who reached between 80 to 100 years old. I also know many are not reaching my current age.

    There are so many variables. We just need to enjoy life while we have it, and thank God for every day.
