Heck no! 40 is not old at all.😉
There is no way at all that you can define old and young based on age. I totally agree with Dr. Ashu that there are really pessimistic, tired of life 25 year old fellas and then there are even 70 year olds who can give the young guys a run for their money. 😛
If you look at Amitahb Bachchan, that guy probably works than an average 30 year old guy. Chalo, he is a celebrity so it may not be okay to compare him with average citizens. But my grandfather will turn 72 in a couple months. He still works-full time and has no health problems whatsoever. The exact same is with my grandmother who is 68. They both live alone, do their shopping alone and drive around wherever they want to without any tension. People think they are in their early fifties. On his seventieth birthday, he told everyone that he feels that he is yet seventeen 😆 and has a lot to accomplish. You can not call these people old, can you? 😳
Also, we have Dabulls23 amongst us. If she did not tell us that she had a granddaughter, who would have ever guessed that she is a grandmother? A person who is so lively and enthusiastic about life can never be "old" because the number of years is increasing. 😊
And you will find 40 year old depressed guys, who have lost hope from life and want to go into seclusion. So, how is one possibly supposed to define what old is? 😕
In short, when you feel old- you become old.
