February 23, 2021 An older friend once told me that most of what you learn in your twenties and thirties won’t help you at all throughout the decades to follow. I didn’t believe her for a minute, but I’m beginning to realize she was right. I blew out candles on a cake reading, “Fabulous at 40” last month. I don’t always feel fabulous these days, and the tiny lines at the corners of my eyes are more obvious than they were ten years ago. But I’ve learned a lot throughout the past ten years. Some part of me wishes I’d known what I know now 10 years ago.
