The problem with getting old is that one-by-one all the things that you dreamed of as young and you got to try when got older, feel old and demystified. Suddenly you look out and see less &quot;magic&quot;, less mystery, less things to make you excited, fewer major surprises around the corner.<p>I&#x27;m only (&#x2F;&#x2F;already) in my early 30s but it scares me to think how it might feel, at an older age, to not be able to see anything in the same exciting eye that a teenager does. And the things that might still feel exciting, to not be able to try, due to constraints that &quot;grownups&quot; have (health issues, family, work, other responsibilities, lack of friends willing to participate)
