I'm 68. I have a Cousin ten years my Senior and he still calls me 'Boy' I still don't know whether to take it as a compliment or sock him one LOL
 
I'm 37 but feel 27.
and look 30ish.
Whoop you just missed it, it's 36. In 12 days anyway. LOL, just playing but I feel the same way, I feel like high school just ended last week mentally, when it comes to physically a good bit older. I don't fear age though I embrace it.
 
Apart from the social understanding that quantifies the young category under a time frame, I think being young is about having a tender heart, a heart that is able to smile and be surprised and rejoice and hope and be enthusiastic about life and that is joyful in living for the glory of God. Remember that Jesus said: "Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven", so it is this youth that counts, not the time you have on earth, but the tender and sweet heart that God works in you.
 
This is what young looks like.

I work in a hospital as a Nursing Assistant. Whenever I see the age of a patient we are about to admit usually I say 50 yr olds are pretty young. That might change though, because sometimes there are 80 year olds that are in much better shape than some 30 year olds we get on our floor!
