"However light-hearted you try to be about it, the loss of youth, and everything that goes with it, is quite a trauma"

This quote by Julian Clary talks to the trouble of aging and the loss of youth. It acknowledges that while we may attempt to make light of the situation, the truth is that the shift from youth to their adult years can be a difficult and terrible experience. It is a pointer that growing older is a natural part of life, which it can be challenging to accept the changes that come with it. It is a pointer to be kind to ourselves and to others as we all go through this procedure. It is also a pointer to value the minutes of youth while we have them, and to make the most of them.
