Is youth being overdone in our culture?

Why is that there such a disproportionate focus on youth in our culture? I think experience and being wise is cooler and more attractive. So much emphasis on Y could become silly.

Believe it or not everybody is aging.

The Age of the Wise
Everybody is getting older, believe it or not. The difference this time around is that the amount of people getting older at the time is pretty significant at a global scale. It is a game changer. A demographic shift that will create significant economic and political pressure on governments, countries and families. At the same creating opportunities to develop great services and products to improve the lives of those in the process of ageing. It is obvious that we need to reframe culturally how we view, perceive and related to aging. I propose will called it the wise segment of the population. I would describe it as people not getting older but getting Wiser.
All of us if we are lucky we will get Wiser and I hope we are all treated as wise and valuable human being instead of old people. I am not getting older I am getting wiser. I would like to suggest a very good book that I am reading on the subject “The Age of Aging” by George Magnus. I highly recommend it.

Think young while you get wiser.
