50! CRUM!
« on: May 21, 2007, 10:04:19 am »
My 50th birthday is  approaching and I am NOT dealing with it very well.  Not at all well. 

I've lived with HIV for nearly half my life (infected in 83, tested in 85), so you'd think I'd have a better perspective on this than I do.  But for some reason this birthday is really bothering me

I know it's only a number.  I know all the other cliches people use.  What I don't know is why this one is making me so darn sad.

Sad because I'm entering what I guess is the Autumn of my life.  Sad because when I take an inventory of what my life has been I can't identify much of value.  Sad because physically my youth is gone.  Sad because I seem to have lost my way recently and I'm not sure where in the heck I'm supposed to be headed.

If anyone finds my youthful spirit could you return it to me?  I'll reimburse you for the postage.   ;)

I know a couple of my buddies here are coming right behind me with their 50th, hopefully they are having a better time of it.

I hate this, I hate it alot.

RAB

Oh my goodness, dearest RAB
If you were here, your face I'd GRAB

I'd hold a mirror up for YOU
(When we met, I was FIFTY-TWO!!)

I'd ask that you take a very long LOOK
While I read aloud "Passages" Gail Sheahy's BOOK

You don't know, but soon you WILL
That you are not over any HILL

It's the way we're taught to THINK
As if age 50 were some sort of BRINK

In some ways things become more CLEAR
Especially whom and what you hold DEAR

As to your looks, you're boyish STILL
You need not worry nor take a PILL

It is, I think, as most things we FIND
All hinged upon your state of MIND!!

In advance of whenever Alan's announcement is posted.
Happy UPCOMING Birthday
!!!!!!!!!

From what I remember of your old avatar, and some of the gathering pics, I thought you were late thirties/early forties. We should all look as good as you at 50! It's just a number - don't let yourself get too down about it.

Hey all you guys/gals... 50 IS JUST A NUMBER..... AARP doesn't even try to recruit you until 55  and that is just to try to sell you "old people" stuff...  The local Tax guys don't consider you a "senior" until at least 65.....even  Kroger waits till your 65 to offer a "senior discount"     ...I know all this because I qualify for all those things plus a few more....  I still "think "  I am about 40...what you believe about yourself will project to other people and they will see you that way also...
I know the common press / magazines/ "buzz" says 50 is over the hill  but I think you have a long way to go to even get to the hill....   see all things as  at least "half-full " and you will see that the world around you will see you as young as you want to be...   I look forward to " seeing" all you youngsters in San Francisco

Honey, I feel your pain.   50 was very tough for me last year.   You know what helped me more than anything?   The wonderful birthday post I got here in the forums!  I printed it out and saved it in a folder with all my birthday cards.

The bad news is, it's no cuter on this side of 50.   The good news is, it's really not that much different.

Before we went to Montreal, I ordered this stuff from QVC called "Genie" that was a "face lift in a bottle"....no one noticed.  All it did was made me afraid to smile real big, for fear of 'cracking' my face.....To me you look great, I love you just exactly the way you are.

Hugs,
Alan

My friend, 50 is a big milestone on the road to where ever it is we are all going.  My 50th was WAY harder than my 60th for some reason.  Perhaps because at 50 I had not yet accepted that some of those dreams and aspirations were never going to be realized.  I think at some point I realized that what I had to do, even if it does not sound right, was accept that I wasnt all that I thought I would be when I was 20. Never would be, never will be. Its just the way it its.  The only thing I fear now is becoming a bitter old man.  I still have a youthful outlook and can give those young guys a run for their money if I want to.
Well on that note...Happy Birthday.

Well, guys and gals, I hate burst your bubble, but I already started getting AARP mail!  :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[

I just don't understand it!!!! I am WEEKS younger than RAB!  >:( >:(

OK, so maybe I don't look it, but I am!!! Some of us have good genes, or is that jeans?

I've see RAB in his speedos and, folks, I gotta tell ya, he could give the pope a wet dream.

Oh, and Alan, I didn't think you needed the face lift stuff. You don't look a day over 39 in person.

YIKES!!! Just saw my reflection in a mirror.

Gotta go. It's time for my bath in Oil of Delay, followed by the goat cheese and cucumber eyelift and, of course the Turtle Wax for the head (on my shoulder's, you naughty people).

Let me tell you what I did when I turned 50.  It took me a whole year to celebrate.  I like the idea that when you turn a year older, it's the year you celebrate, not the day.  So make sure you treat yourself right for the whole year.  With that in mind, you and Mark are in for a special treat come this Sept in San Francisco.

Alan, is there anyone else turning 50 this year from AM?  ARe they going to be in SF?  I wish I had known you turned the big 50 last year.  Well looking back, maybe I did when I gave you that paper back edition of To Kill A Mockingbird.  Who knew?

RAB,

I turned 50 in December, 2005 just a few months after the HIV diagnosis.  There are some benefits:

Eligibility for AARP.  I have been able to purchase low cost term life insurance with no medical exam and automatic eligibility.  Same with extended hospitalization.  I have also used their hotel discounts.  All this for less than $30 a year for membership. 

You are still not yet a senior citizen, but you can take Centrum Silver (pretty good mulltvitamin.)

Bourbon still tastes good!

Think of all you have already accomplished, and yes, like AlanBama says, the "greetings" from here when they post your birthday thread are nice.

Take it from someone who knows.... 50 is OK!

THANKS EVERYONE!

I'm obviously in the middle of either a bonafide "midlife crisis" (if there is such a thing) or I'm throwing myself the biggest pity party I have ever thrown.

Either way it is fruitless and can get unhealthy if I allow myself to stay on the corner of BooHoo Blvd and WaWa Lane for too long. 

Last night DamnFool informed me that if I didn't change my ways and stop this "bullshit" of acting like I'm some kind of old heifer he would start treating me like one.  Something about tieing (sp?) me to a stake in the backyard and leaving me there to fend for myself.

To all of you, you've done your good deeds for the week by posting here, it definitely lifted my spirits.  Thanks!

The only solution I know of for what you are describing is Zen Meditation and then you will be in touch again with
the source why you are here, some yoga groups might give almost the same effect.

What I hear is the classic Dust on the mirror analogy - in zen

that living causes dust to accumulate on the mirror of coucsousness and this causes things to leek and feel dull

but you can see zen masters who are 89 and still very pert up alive and in the moment

i had the fortune or misfortune to go thru what you did in 1985

zen is answer, meditation answer to issue you are talking about

if zen is too eastern then try any of the christian orders spend a week or a month with those brown robed christian monks who sit silently

Congratulations of making it to 50.  I'm sure in a few months time, you'll be wondering why the hell you dreaded this bday so much.

Re: 50! Not Joining the Pity Party!

My 50th birthday is approaching and I am NOT dealing with it very well.  Not at all well. 

I've lived with HIV for nearly half my life (infected in 83, tested in 85), so you'd think I'd have a better perspective on this than I do.  But for some reason this birthday is really bothering me


RAB, et. al.: Am I the only infected guy here WHO LOOKED FORWARD TO TURNING 50? "Autumn of life"? %#@&#% THAT! I didn't expect to turn 40. I recently made 50. I will be starting a new job soon, and have other irons in the fire.

Youth culture has so polluted our minds that we actually believe it's awful just being older. I walk like a young man because I feel no need to slow down. I don't hide the grey or the wrinkles. I don't try to be anything I am not.

The only way to avoid getting old is die young! No thanks! COUNT ME OUT OF THIS PITY PARTY!  >:(

Happy Birthday RAB!  I would echo what numerous others have said!  I do understand the "loss of youth" feeling.  Sometimes you look back and realize that a chunk of your life has gone by.  But there is still a chunk left.  And you are so much wiser now.  I'm looking forward to meeting you in San Fran in Sept.  From some of the comments here I'm sure you can still turn some heads in a major way!   ;D
