Maybe this makes me old, but I do agree with this. It doesn’t bother me anymore when my friends who are a few years younger than I think that they’re better than I am for being younger. I actually am happy that I’ve made it this far, and I know I have more energy and look better than they do.
Having nearly died and spending 5 weeks in the hospital in December and January, I can vouch that celebrating being alive isn’t necessarily lowering the bar!

Why am I flashing on Doctor Frankenstein? “It’s alive!”

Oh tah! You got another year older, that’s reason enough to celebrate. Especially if you can get a free meal somewhere.

lowering the bar is not always a bad thing. The worst thing about it is if you drink too much, you face those stairs going up to the street level

Yes. It is you. AND you are lowering the bar.
