Answer:
“Live your life and forget your age.” These wide words come from the late Norman Vincent Peale, the author of The Power of Positive Thinking. However, these days, especially if you’re someone in your 20s or even your early 30s, it’s quite hard to forget your age, especially with all the age-related, if not completely ageist, articles being funnelled to us over the Internet.
It seems like everywhere we go on the web, we’re presented with people telling us how we should think and behave, or even worse, how we do think and behave (as if outsiders have the inside scoop on all our lives), according to our age classifications. The biggest offender when it comes to this is likely Buzz Feed, which features titles such as “Life in Your Early Twenties vs. Your Late Twenties,” “Life In Your Twenties vs. Life in Your Thirties,” “Things Millennial Girls Love,” and “Things Millennial Guys Love.” If you aren’t familiar with the term “millennial” yet, it refers to people ranging from their late teens all the way up to around 30 years old.
While it’s fun to read these articles at times, it’s difficult to deny that they make sweeping generalizations and attempt to put us all into boxes. This can quickly make people insecure. For instance, some of the more insecure girls among us “millennial” may start to worry that because we don’t enjoy calling ourselves fat or being too tired to go out (two things the “Millennial Girls” article states that we all love), we’re anomalies who don’t fit in with the accepted social order. For those of us who could be referred to as non-conformists and enjoy marching to the beat of our own drums, this may not be a huge deal, but for others, feeling like you don’t fit in can seem like a huge hit to already-fragile self-esteem.
The articles that compare certain age groups, such as early 20s vs. late 20s, or 20s vs. 30s, are potentially even more depressing for those who fall on the older sides of those particular spectrums. According to most of these articles, people in their early twenties are energetic, fun, attractive beings who enjoy going out and exploring their world, but some sort of magical transformation happens somewhere between the more advanced ages of 25 and 35, turning virtually every human being into a fat, out-of-shape, Netflix-watching binge eater who can barely stand staying up past 11 p.m. (if you want to know exactly when this Transformation of Doom happens; well, that depends on which article you’re reading).
A wonderful gem from one of these articles is the example of running on the treadmill—in your early twenties, it’s easy-breezy, but after that, it will apparently wreak havoc on your whole body and cause you to fear that your feeble, decrepit knees will give out on you. I can’t speak for everyone, but running on the treadmill’s always put my body in a little bit of pain, even when I was 12 years old. Who knows? Maybe I’ve been “old” for the vast majority of my life.
It’s not only Buzz Feed that’s undoubtedly jumped on the bandwagon of perpetuating these ridiculous age-based stereotypes. Another culprit is Post Graduation Problems, a website for recent university and college graduates who have recently moved into the working world. While this website is amusing and has a semi-satirical basis, the jokes it posts about, for instance, recent grads realizing that they can’t walk up stairs as easily as they once could, or noticing extra fat rolls on their bellies as they sit at their desks, help reinforce the common message that’s out there for all of us able-bodied beings—after age 25, you’re basically over the hill. You’re lucky that you can still even move, so the best thing for you to do is forget about pursuing your dreams (who wants to use up those dwindling amounts of energy?), and just flop on your couch with a bag of chips.
Speech on age is just a number :
•Age is like a barrier created by our society.
•We have the freedom to enjoy,to follow our
own dreams no matter whatever might be the age.
•Some believe that some things can't be done when we are children.
•But it can be proved wrong.People of any age can achieve anything in life they desire at any specific time,but there should be an aim in our mind.
•Nowadays,we can see plenty of small kids and doing great achievements at a very young age.
•Age is just a number.it doesn't matter.Just follow your dreams.
