I love this quote by David Bowie! If I read this correctly, as I ease on past 55 (😳) and lose elastin with each new day, am I also becoming more the person I should have been? I hope he didn’t think crepey skin, bruising when struck with a feather, and skin like tissue paper is what I should have always been!😳 With the rambunctious life I lead when younger, I would have needed a port for regular transfusions!
I use toasted sesame seed oil in some stir fry dishes. Does unrefined oil become “toasted” by virtue of a frying pan and low heat? Repurposing the oil could spare you the feeling of preparing for a greased pig contest when Thalia goes overboard with her slathering!🤔😬
I kind of cringed at the quote’s word “should” because I’ve really been working to stop should-ing on myself.
The journey is what life is all about?
I’d say that I would not have the depth and substance I have now without all of the many phases and versions of Gail that I have experienced. I wouldn’t give any of them back.
Good point, Gail. Maybe a better version is: Aging is an extraordinary process where you become the person you were created to be. Hmm. Nope. At every age, we are who we are, meaning whether we are completely realizing all of our gifts and potential, we have opportunities to learn life's lessons.

ON BECOMING
I used to think that turning 30
Would mean I had grown up
Now I see that turning 30
Just meant I was a pup!
Now that I am 30 doubled
Plus a couple more
Then will I be a wise dog
If I live 30 more?
😬
A poem! 🎉
Thank you!
And thanks also for sneakily sending me off to the edit button. 😂 You are the best!

Aging is an extraordinary process where you become the person you always should have been.
