If you didn’t know your biological age – how old would you say you are? Having chatted amongst my girlfriends recently we giggled as we shared our ‘heart’ ages… the age we’ve been for a long time on the inside. One lovely lady who is about 43 biological years old, said she’s felt for a long time that really she’s only ’30′ years old another said she feels like she is ’6′ years old inside and I said I’m really ’18′ years old.
Isn’t it funny how we can have two ages? What’s your ‘heart’ age? The lady who is ’30′ said that she’s happily felt a sense of responsibility since she was very young. The lady who said she’s ’6′ years old inside felt that she’s often confused by the world, daunted by the world – and I have to remember that my own daughters biologically are 17 and 18 years old and that I can’t join in with ALL that they do! Even if I feel like it!
It can be that a significant event has happened at a certain age, and inside we’ve stayed there whilst the external aging process has carried on.
Sometimes our ‘heart’ age says more about us than our biological age. And that is ok. Life is fun; it’s not mean to be all serious and hard work. Do what makes you happy! If we feel like we’re only ’6′ sometimes or even ’90′ it is ok to ask for help and support when it’s needed. We all need a bit of help sometimes. Reach out and be thankful for it.
