Are you glad or happy to be the age you are now?

I'd rather be younger for one reason. Physically, I felt so much better. I had boundless energy. At my present age I never feel 100% like I did back then. 100% now still means something hurts somewhere, I've just learned to live with it and work around it.
 

Agree -- 35 or 40. I'd want to take my "wisdom" with me so I could avoid some stuff.

I agree on taking my 65 years of wisdom with me but if I could turn back the clock and freeze my age it would be 40.

My teens, 20's and 30's were interesting and I wouldn't trade anything for the memories and experiences but by 40 I was pretty much settled and temperament wise I had mellowed somewhat.
 
Given how hard I worked in my career and the toll it sometimes took on me and my family, I think I'm happier at this age. I wouldn't want to go back, except for the part when my back didn't ache so much and my knee didn't give me pain and my shoulder didn't make so much noise.......well, you get the picture. It's nice to look forward to slowing down and enjoying the fruits of my labor.
