I feel like I understand what it means to thrive, to slough off the unnecessary burdens & to realize that I give very few fucks anymore. I would never have believed this when I was 25 but somehow now, in my 50s, I often feel more alive than ever. Grateful for every year and day, every mile and speed bump, every stumble and fall, every bit of joy, smiles sent my way, love, the friendship of those gone too soon and the fellowship & family of all I am so privileged to know.
