Aging with grace takes guts. Every day I am told by someone that growing old is hard. Bodies, minds, digestion all don't work quite the way they used to.

I am fifty years old, and there is a lot I wish I had done differently.

In my youth, I worried about what other people thought, continually tried to please others, raged against my insecurities, and was frankly a hot mess.

Eating disorders, clinical depression, being overweight and unhealthy enmeshment in family relationships define most of my life past Middle School.

I was forty-five when I found myself divorced, single parenting, and scrambling for a different way to define myself.

Because it took me so long to get to this place, I appreciate my age more. This person could not exist in my youth; I did not have the skill or self-love to accomplish it.

I equate age with gaining wisdom, living more honestly, and separating from the ways of my younger days to create a future I never thought possible.
