Embracing Older

It’s hard. There is no sugar coating it or getting around the ticking by of years. Corrective surgery and pricey creams can help, but no matter what you try, older is still happening. If you are not aging, please point me towards the fountain of youth stumbled on.

I have a birthday just around the corner, it is not a milestone but it has me thinking about the next one. 40. What have I done so far? What do I want to do before my 30’s end? I want to close this chapter well and fully embrace the next.

I have made a working list, a bucket list maybe of what I want to do or better practices to learn for the next chapter.

This aging thing does not have to be a negative experience folks. Wherever you are at, sit down and take inventory of you. How are you living? How are you making an impact? Can you learn anything new? Do you have anything you have learned that could be useful to younger people just starting out?

I am always learning and at this age, still getting it all together. There is not an Instagram perfect life here, just grace and love. Also, three little pairs of eyes watching me.

So I am taking stock of Natasha. He created me wonderfully and beautifully; that continues into 40 and beyond.

Let the celebrations begin!
