This is one of the most interesting threads I've seen for a while. I have been reading but have chosen not to post as I was curious to hear from the
older wiser of you

. Thanks to all who have posted so far.
Im 30 and have thrashed my body - (PHYSICALLY)
Through my early and mid teens I was into sailing dingy's and was always holding the sheet putting strain on my back.
I loved footy and rough sports.
Surfing is my real passion . I would jump off the end of Snapper Rocks in a massive swell and intentionally paddle against the sweep for as long as possible just to see how far I could go. I have had some major wipeouts in my time resulting in ongoing chairo treatment.
In my mid teans I started a love with alchohol and weed and spent a good few years finding the limits.
I have also worked my ass of for 4 years on nightshift in an engineering trade and was on the edge of breaking into some chronic fatigue @ 25.
I now notice that it is starting to take a little longer for me to warm up before excercise and a few extra creaks and craks here and there.
Im 30 and my WII fit age is 32 lol.
My mother got a numerological reading done for me for my 30th and I was alarmed what showed up both mentally and phyically. I had never met the woman who did the reading and I am not willing to trust everything that was said , however somethings add up.
WOuld I change how I have treated my self????
Not by much. sure I have pushed the limits but I am still strong. I dont smoke . Mentally , spiritually and physically I would concider myself superior so most .
I still love to charge and my motto has always been "Go hard or go home"!
One of the most important things I think is that I am as happy as a pig in $hit. Life is an amazing experience and if I passed away tomorrow I would die a very happy and content man.
If you look after your soul life is beautiful!

However there is a responsibility to those that you love and those that love you and that is to look after your self.
