The whole concept of not knowing what you’ve got until it’s gone. Remember that song you used to hate hearing and now 20 some years later, you’d wish we’d be back to music like it because music today is too artificial and AI-powered? Remember nearly a lot of things you criticized and now have a soft spot for because everything now has gone to shit?

Yeah, that hits hard. What sucks is that sometimes, you don’t know for certain if you’re experiencing the best of things. But once it passes you, give it 1 - 5 years, you’ll know it.

    3 years I had a normal blood pressure.

    5 years and 2 months ago I had a back.

    10 years ago I had knees.

    Oh, and I haven’t slept more than 5 or 6 hours a night in several years and most of the time I’m lucky to get 4.

    I truly do not mind getting older. It has a lot of benefits, but damn… I’d like there be enough of my body left to enjoy it.
