Goodbye dirty thirty! Hello crazy forty! =) Vintage store Yucca Valley CA, 7-22-18.
I made it! Finally 40. No big deal right? Well, I was always saying that age is just a number. And it is but it is also a state of mind. As we age we face our own impermanence. We're not going to live for ever and we observe our bodies aging, decaying. I always wished I would accept aging with grace and gratitude because some people don't have the luxury to get older. But it's easier said then done and I had my own struggle a few weeks before my 40th birthday. Now that it's over I made peace with it, no turning back of course. I am inspired by older people who just don't care about age and do their thing anyway. Let your inner child dance wild, dirty feet, crazy hair, raw emotions, embracing each moment just as it is. Not looking back or searching for the future. The present moment is the only moment where life happens. I am full of gratitude for my life, it's perfectly imperfect as it is. I survived my past and everything unfolds as it should be bringing experiences that are meant to help us grow and evolve. Crazy forty, I am ready! |
