I was buying a bottle of wine a few days ago, and the guy at the register carded me, no big deal. I made some remark about 'I hear that one day that turns into a compliment' and he just very casually responded with 'Don't ever feel bad about aging, it's a privilege denied to many.' and it completely changed my mood for the day.

Dunno why but your last sentence made me think of that.
