This week’s collection is all about aging gracefully. It’s my birthday coming up on the 24th and it’s a big one this year…. 50! *gasp*
I heard the song “Once in a Lifetime” by the Talking Heads recently, and that repeated line, “same as it ever was” sort of stuck in my head. I kept thinking that despite getting older, I am the same as I ever was. Hence, this collection was born. Despite me moving into a new decade, I don’t feel any older than I did when I was younger. I certainly wouldn’t go back to being that uncertain 20-something! (Although I wouldn’t mind being the size I was back then, I won’t lie!) All in all, I’ve enjoyed getting older and becoming who I really am. I’ve found a real freedom to just be me in recent years, and that’s kind of nice.
