When you're in your 20s or 30s, you feel like you have all the time in the world. Sometimes you put things off or stop doing something, convinced that you'll have the chance to pick it back up in the future. For me, the first real impact of turning 40 (and now 45) is realizing that, no, some of the things I didn't do (or stopped doing) 15 years ago are no longer possible. Some things, maybe, but they wouldn't be the same.
I admit, this thought crosses my mind sometimes. Then I focus on the things I can do, and everything feels much lighter.
