It's an old saying but one with some truth in it. People say life begins at 40, do you think it's true? It's one of the main quotes you hear in connection with people's fortieth birthdays. I suppose when you reach that age you've got so much life experience and hopefully you've made most of the mistakes that you're going to make. You find yourself in a better position to make life decisions, or indeed finally understand what it is that you want out of life. You've reached a certain maturity that helps you decide what you want and hopefully by now you know how to get it! Some people feel old on their 40th birthday, it's our job to show them the positive side and encourage them to seek the hapiness and fulfilment that they always wanted. It's never too late! Musn't let being forty get you down, oh no. It's a time to embrace living and do the things you always wanted to do, have those adventures that you dreamed of and finally live with prior knowledge and experience that you can use to your total advantage. It's like being reborn. It's pretty exciting actually once you get into it. No need to to hold back now - go for it!

I'd say life begin's at forty, but I'd also say life begins at any age. You just have to know what you want then make a plan to get it. As the other famous quote goes - Every great journey starts with one small step - take that first step, and leap out into your forties and grab life with both hands, because you only get one opportunity - and yes, you're getting old!

The idea that 'life begins at forty' dates back to 20th century. Before that it was probably more accurate to say 'death begins at forty' because most people didn't live much beyond that age. Believe it or not, the life expectancy in mediaeval England was only around 25 years old! It only reached forty at around the turn of the 20th century. Another famous saying 'The first forty years of life give us the text: the next thirty supply the commentary." was quoted by German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. These days women in their forties have many more extra marital affairs - it's like suddenly they wake up and they realize that what they wanted aged 20 is no longer relevant to what they want now. Or maybe they just got bored in their marriages!
