What are the pros and cons of being your age?

For me, as a 31 year old…

Pros:

  1. No assignments, no exams, no vivas, no sacrificing fun activities to make time for studies.
  2. Better understanding of the world and self, less insecure and less prone to hurt.
  3. Tears don't come as easily which saves a lot of embarrassment.
  4. Independent in terms of making money and spending it as desired.
  5. Young enough to complain about the uptight older people and old enough to roll eyes at the younger generation.

Cons

  1. Making friends is not as easy. There's something about those friends from school and college that remains unmatched.
  2. Can't love hopelessly or without reason. Heart is always guarded by the mind.
  3. Tears don’t come as easily making it harder to let the pain out.
  4. Expected to act like a grown up and be an adult about everything. “Just because I want to” is not an acceptable reason anymore.
  5. Birthdays have lost their sheen.
