Popular entertainment personality Charles Oputa aka Charly Boy turned 64 today Friday, June 19, 2015. And speaking in a recent interview on the occasion, he talked about on his age, not living according to norms of society and him not having any regrets. In his own words;
“I’m not particular about how old or young the number is. What I care about is the age of my mind and then the age of my body. From my look, my energy and all, I feel 35 or slightly younger. That is the age of my mind. Going by my experiences, my responsibilities, my wisdom and all, I should be about 87 years old.”
About his dress sense:
“I dress the way I feel. My happy moments are when my usefulness is engaged, when I see the influence I bring into people’s lives, when I’m able to add value and make a measurable contribution to individuals and society.
On regrets in life:
“Regrets don’t exist in my dictionary. I live life on the edge and to change it would mean doing things in traditional or conventional ways. To do that, for me, is to give up the ghost. If it’s not daunting and scary, it certainly is not for me.”
We at The Herald wish the Area fada a very happy birthday
