Age and Understanding

I like getting older, actually. I really do. I've let go of a lot of things that caused me pain. I'm so much more confident in my abilities, boundaries, and talents. I don't put up with jerks and poseurs. I call it like I see it. I've embraced my strengths and I don't let anyone tell me what's ladylike and what's not.

I am who I am now. I'm fully me and that is so totally awesome. True my body is not as strong as I'd like, but my spirit is and, really, that's what's most important. At least it's important to me.

I still have a lot to learn, I'll grant you. But today I am my own superhero. That's a nice place to be.
