  1. yes it is because confidence comes with age x*x


  2. Yes, and wisdom on the aged.

  3. ignorance is blissful .........the young should enjoy that before

    they enter the horrors of adult life

    innocence and strength good combination

  4. hmmm, good question, I f I knew then what I knew now is a good adage. Life is a learning curve I suppose. I like the the saying saying that states: 'Old people believe everything, middle-aged people suspect everything and young people know everything. Great question anyway, star from me.

  5. You bet your sweet life it IS!

    BTW "porcupine crack" got a violation!"

    OOOooooh! Aren't we thin skinned today?

    I think that we should be born at about 200 years old, and grow back down so that we could really SAVOUR all the increasing delights to come!

    JUST THINK ! If you make enemies: you can think: just you wait till I'm 25 again and I'll smash your face in!!

  6. Of course.  The young don't have the common sense, discernment, or wisdom to know what to do with their youth.

  7. omg yeah!

    if only they'd understand and stop trying to grow up too quick, I was guilty of this too, now I wish those days were back.....

    you don't realise until it's gone!

  8. No doubt.... yes.

    'I wish I still had the energy, I had when I was 16/17/18/19/20.  With what I know now...... '  

    God.... If only I could be arsed.....

  9. Oh christ!

    Well first off how would you ever become a succesfull adult without that youth?

    If youth would be wasted on the young how in the world, would the young become adults.

    And as confidence builds as the years go by adults are stronger against this harsh world.To childs the world is a huge place of evil and good. Thats that.A big world full of fun and happyness and family,of evil and temptaitions.

    And let me refraise this.Without youth the young would not be.

    Do you remember how it was to be younger?

    It all felt better...Life was simpler and you learnd how to life and it was probably more difficult than acctually living as an adult in this world.

    So youth is not waisted on the young , because the young need the yout.But not adults!They have gone trough it and dont need that strenght and healht that the young ones need so much...!

  10. No its just boring old f**ts who wish for their time over again being  jealous of the younger generation . everyone has to learn for themselves and youth is the time to do this .

  11. No, they need the energy and excitement and curiousity to find their path and sow their oats. Hopefully we never lose those things, but the sharp edges are softened by time and experience. ( But I do miss my old body!LOL)

  12. No way! The young deserve their youth, just as we all did. Don't be bitter about it. Apprciate the fact that you are older and wiser. Let the children enjoy youth, and we, as adults, should all do our best to make it a happy "youth" for them.

  13. Oh man. If I could combine the self confidence that I have today, with the body I had at 16 and the parents paying for all my bills, I'd be an unstoppable force of nature, lol!

    When you're young, you're too busy worrying about what everyone else thinks of you to really enjoy life. You may *think* you're enjoying it, but in 20 years you'll look back and think, d**n why was I so worried about those stupid things?
