At What Age Are You Happiest?


Have you ever wondered at what age are you actually at your happiest? According to a recent survey, the answer is 33 years old.

A British website found that 70 percent of respondents over the age of 40 said they did not find true happiness until they were 33 years old.

“[That age] is enough time to have shaken off childhood naivety and the wild scheming of teen-aged years without losing the energy and enthusiasm of youth,” said Donna Dawson, a psychologist. “Innocence has been lost, but our sense of reality is mixed with a strong sense of hope, a ‘can do’ spirit, and a healthy belief in our own talents and abilities.”

As the site pointed out, Jesus Christ was crucified at age 33. Oh, and “33-year-old celebrities like Jennifer Love Hewitt, Maroon 5 front man Adam Levine, and Katie Holmes seem to be enjoying a wealth of success right now.”

Even non-celebrities agree.
