You Have More Freedom
Last, but definitely not least, I couldn’t write a whole article about the benefits of being in your forties without mentioning the greatest gift of all… no, not your kids, but the fact that they are now old enough to take care of themselves (at least partially). No more diapers, no more crumbs all over the floor, and most importantly… being able to pee alone in peace!
So, overall, I hope that those of your reading this who are in their forties like me have a newfound appreciation for being a Quadragenarian and those of you in your twenties and thirties realize that you have a lot to look forward to.
