It starts small - bags under your eyes no matter how well rested you are, grey hairs popping up here and there, strange aches that are more annoyance than pain. It's scary and takes time to accept. But by the time you do, more jarring signs of age have begun to set in and the cycle starts all over again.
Aging is a constant body dysmorphia that affects everyone. Everyone who lives past 27 at least.
Remind me of a song by a punk band called the Wonder Years "Woke Up Older;''. one of the lines of the song is " you left the room receeded like my hairline''
I feel excercise has definitely helped me avoid some, but not all, of the creaks and pops I hear some of my friends complaining about. But just the fact that now my body needs to be maintained - whereas before I could trust it to do that for itself - is kind of startling for me.
