A penny for your thoughts!

I am in my mid thirties. So when I say:

‘When I was young….’

It think of the time when I was younger than twenty years old.

But, not too long ago, I associated this phrase with my childhood.

What has changed? Well…ten years.

I guess in my mind I group years in tens. So now that I am 37, I think of my twenties as ‘recently’, and anything before my twenties is my ‘young’ era. Even though there are significant differences between my teenage and pre teenage years.

How do you think about yourself “when you were young “?
