Fayebelle Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 So everyone always focuses on the gripes of getting older- well I want to talk about the goodies that come w/age. I was always an athlete when I was younger but off the field/court I was a clumsy ox. Now I seem to have more natural grace - maybe it comes from being more comfortable in my own body. I'm not sure. But unless I'm confronted w/ a new and total hottie (in which case I revert into my oafish demeaner of old) I fell I present myself in a Much more ladylike manner. Patience is the other gift I hold dear. My temper tantrums are down to 2 a day which is really quite an improvement. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Fayebelle Posted July 15, 2004 Author Share Posted July 15, 2004 Everyone said they would like a few positive threads and I've been trying lately but it sure feels like I'm talking to the crickets sometimes. Link to post Share on other sites
thecake Posted July 15, 2004 Share Posted July 15, 2004 I love the wisdom I've attained from getting older...I like the "been there - done that" feeling I have about a lot of things. I'm one of those weird people who couldn't WAIT to turn 30 simply because I learned so much in my 20's and I was ready to apply these lessons to life in my 30's. I love that I've lived long enough to understand that I'll get through really tough times...that nothing - good or bad - lasts forever. There's a comfort in knowing that...so you can appreciate the good and know you'll get through everything else. Patience? What's that? Ha. Yeah...I've learned to be patient...and more understanding about a lot of things....a little less judgmental. Link to post Share on other sites
