Y'all are so lucky, a second post from me today!
Here it is, July 30th.
Yesterday was my birthday.
Its never been a big deal for me;
having a birthday in the summer meant
that most often, kids weren't around
for any kind of party. Perhaps that's
where my own feelings about
not celebrating birthdays comes from.
So its the big 55 - double nickels.
Others might fret over the "big" numbers -
turning 30, 40 or 50
i never have.
age is just a number, and not a true
reflection of who you are as a person
or what your life is about.
i can honestly say that
i don't feel 55 - at least
mentally! i can also state
that my body has its days
where it says "yep, we're
really gettin' that old!" lol
i was reading the other
day just a random
fictional story about a
young girl - and a wise
woman told her this:
"When a chapter of your Life Book is complete,
your spirit knows it's time to turn the page
so a new chapter can begin. Even when you're
scared or think you're not ready, your spirit
knows you are."
if you look back on your life, you can see
chapters that begin and end, only to begin again.
i don't know about you, but this feels like
a new chapter for me .....
and i'm ready!
