Youth, Anti-Aging and Why Everyone Should Move to Kenya

Men and women around the world spend billions of dollars each year attempting to make themselves look younger. Be it through Botox, face lifts, liposuction, WHATEVER. They are doing it all in the name of beauty.
They Olay their faces each night and day, hoping that crease will one day un-creasify itself. They belly dance and kick-box and yoga their way to a cellulite-free body. And their circle of friends? Dr Atkins, Jenny Craig, Oprah and the spray-tanning lady.
I hate to be the one to poop the party, but quite frankly, these people need to be in AA meetings – Anti-Agers Anonymous.
The reality is that no matter how much surgery you have or how many creams you slather on your face, you are still going to age sweetheart. That’s just the way life goes.
So I was thinking, perhaps what it all really boils down to is feeling young. If you feel it, you probably don’t need to go to all these lengths to physically confirm it. That’s why I think all AAers should move to Kenya.
You see, a Kenyan government minister has proposed to change the legal definition of “youth”. Currently, the term encompasses all persons between the ages of 15 and 30. But if things go Mr Kuti’s way, the term will be broadened to include all those between the ages of 15 and 50!
Why would they do that? Well, let’s just say it’s got nothing to do with the AAers, and everything to do with helping the people of Kenya access billion-dollar government funds which they would otherwise not have access to.
I just reckon that if there’s a law telling you that at the age of 50 you are still considered young, then *poof* problem solved! Am I onto something here?
