You are so right...it's almost scary knowing that we are not immortal, that we have a responsibility to ourSELF to find our passion, and that (for me, at least), I've wasted a lot of time whining about things that didn't matter. I've also learned that the "me" from so long ago wasn't so bad, after all. Sigh. Oh I do love this post.

Starting yoga at 52, I've never been so strong----in body and in mind, and I have to admit, I look damn good.!!!!

Put aside your self righteousness. Try just a little harder to judge less and give... and forgive more. Someday you will be the one needing forgiveness. Try just a little harder to laugh more and cry less. And when you ask if things will ever get better...easier...less painful....the answer is YES! Hang on, I am waiting here for you, little sister. Love B My Dear Barbie,

It always makes us stronger and more self assured at the M stage. Gone are the every day worries with our spouses and children. I find this a very special time and i am currently enjoying my golden years. Celebrate these years Goddesses and kudos to our enlightened leader Lynette.
