Loved this one! I’m 55 (look much younger) and dealing with aging in a much more “in my face” way than I ever have - and the stressors of health challenges plus losing a parent (and other things) have got me feeling old and diminished. I needed to read all of this. I’m considering getting an MFA in poetry. Have felt too old but hey could use the refresh!!
I have to say it is harder to join the younger fray than it used to be. I was also a dancer for most of my life - semi professional. I have osteoporosis now and need to exercise and finally don’t have chronic pain. So I hit Afrobeats class …. So much fun and no one believed I was a day over 35….until the pain in my back started later that night. Haven’t been able to do much since! 😂 But I’m not going to give up. Thanks for the boost and inspiration!
Aw, thank you so much!! I feel ya. Losing a parent, dancing background - yep, yep. But I don’t think you’re ever too old to learn and grow, and you sure do look much younger than you are!

Even knowing you have a 7 year old…you don’t look a day over…30.
Keep doing what you are doing. It's working. Love you.
