my 30s...

...have been better than shoes!!!

As I look at the clock on my computer screen, 13 minutes left in the soon-to-be previous decade of my life, I'm thinking "has been a hell of ride"! No, not always good, not always easy, not always fair, not always happy... But always me! Always true to myself! A very clever man once, many years ago, told me that I should not follow other people's rules, I should make my own set of principles and live by them as they will be the steps leading to my freedom... I have done that... it has been an excellent piece of advise.

So here I am, almost 40 years old, not really wise, not really sure, not really complete but pretty damn close... It has been a decade of learning, loving, laughing with my heart (in fact I have been doing just that tonight as I have been watching standup comedy with my man... so laughter and love, two in one), crying, hurting, enjoying, traveling, getting angry, fighting, relaxing, kissing... a decade surely full of life!

And yes, I have a decade more of wrinkles on my face and my body starts to look and feel kinda weird and I do need a nap more often than I did (if that is even possible...) and I do not digest lactose well anymore and... oh, well, who cares?! I'm here! I made it! And I'm ready for another decade and another one and another one and I hope I'm not leaving this world before I'm at least 94 and I have appeared on TV (or whatever equivalent we'll have by then...) and have said everything that crosses my mind ;)

Happy 40th birthday to me!
