I had a number of comments on yesterday's post........ I decided to clarify my thoughts a little bit today..........
90% of my days are filled with life and living and loving....... the future is out there ... to be planned and look forward to........... I refuse to be an 'old lady'.... my hair is cut in a funky asymmetrical style..... I now dress to please myself (no more dressing to suit the man in my life - and thankfully the man in my life now expects me to dress to please myself)....... I was extremely flattered last summer when I discovered most folks thought I was 10 years younger than my calendar age....... WOW! that was a biggy for me!!
I honestly don't care what other people think about how I dress or how I act... for the first time in my life I feel free to be me... and am having great fun discovering who I really am!!
It's just ........ sometimes.......... the numbers flash in my mind's eye.. garish coloured flashing numbers -- making me feel fragile and old...and questioning every ache .. every twinge... scaring me............
Life is good when you can talk about fears/worries and have friends gather round...
and I am posting this pic cause I have nothing to hide ........ and need to really SEE myself!
Damn straight!
ReplyDeleteTurn off the neon in those numbers. They mean exactly what you LET them mean..to YOU.
Oh wow Morningstar, it is a real privilege to see the real you. I see a beautiful, strong, vibrant woman. Thank you so much for sharing.
