First off, if being 26 makes you old, I'm not sure what I should describe myself as -- for reference, if not for my first miscarriage, my first born would be older than you are by a couple of years. And while I do sometimes refer to myself as old, I most often refer to myself as middle aged. That's bad enough.I took my mother to a party a few years back. Many of the people there were roughly her age -- all people I'd known since childhood, age eight or nine -- and Mother was nervous about seeing them all. When we left, I said, "Well, if it makes you feel any better, all of them looked at least ten years older than you do -- even So'N'So and she's had work done!" My sweet mother snapped at me, "Well, there are some benefits to immaturity!"
Just remember that, Deneb: there are benefits to immaturity. If you find yourself feeling immature, remember there are benefits.
