It really ain't so bad, I wouldn't worry about it if I were you.
"I'm so glad to grow older," as someone just about exactly my age (whose image recently graced this very board) once put it, "To move away from those awful years..."
Or, to adapt some fine lines by someone considerably older even than he and I:
"Some natural tears I've dropped, but wiped them soon,
The world is all before me, where to choose,
My place of rest, and Providence my guide.
Though agèd, I'll with wandering steps and slow,
Through Eden take my solitary way."
