Ummm… How is that possible?

On the one hand, I am sort of starting to feel like a grown up.  On the other hand, there’s no possible way I can be almost forty, right?  I mean, that’s just weird.  I don’t feel forty.  I barely feel thirty!  I suppose that old adage “age is just a number” rings true for everyone at some point or another.  Whether it’s when we’re young and judged prematurely based on that one number, rather than the breadth of responsibilities we’ve handled in our short lives; or as we age and fail to live up to some random, pre-determined, usually consumer-driven ideal.

I may not be totally ready to grow up, however, I do plan on spending the next trip around the sun growing.  Reading, writing and reflecting. Honing my photography skills, creating art in a new way.  one that challenges what I know today.  I plan on spending days playing with paint and charcoal and clay.  I will put more time into relationships and people than work and things.

Below…some thoughts for my next 365 days.
