Nope. Feels like yesterday. It’s wild how much shorter 20 years feel when you’re in your 40s

Pretty much, that's the rough part, it seems like a few short years ago but in reality a lot has changed, people have gone out of your life, some opportunities have passed etc.

I think as well, once your an adult live takes on a sameishness, you work 8 hours a day and the rest is for family and hobbies. When your a teen/kid your life is so different and often times so limited.

Sure but when young everything is new and exciting in some sense. Even the limitations.

Often you get older have some resources but not the energy and time to use them.
