I also like getting older. I like being more confident in saying no. Still struggle with people pleasing but now I know how to examine the reasons I do it.

I've been spending time with women who are 15-20 years younger than me and they value my advice. I'm proud of myself for being able to give it. They have clear skin, no wrinkles and boundless energy. But I have the confidence that comes from surviving things that they don't yet know they'll be able to survive. I think that's a fair trade.
