I’ve learned that when the parole officer calls, it’s in ones best interest to respond to his message.5

Now that I’m older, I’m better at:
1. Convincing myself that what I was trying to remember was not really worth remembering anyway...
2. Not tolerating intolerance...
3. Wearing clothes based more on comfortability than style...
4. Accepting my disorders...
5. Ellipses...2 -
Accepting myself and others for all of their qualities, good and bad.
Determining what is actually important in life.
Letting certain things slide, but not taking *kitten* from anyone either - still suck at the latter, but better than I once was.

A couple months away from 43, I am feeling a lot more confident, in more ways. I think I see the big picture a lot better than I once did.
I have let go of a lot of things that I was holding onto for years. I recognize I am now living in a different world and era than when I was first beginning my adulthood 20+ years ago, and instead of being bitter about it I try to look at all the positives and embrace it.0 -
I am waaaayyyyy more confident now than I ever have been! I know who I am- I know what I want/ don’t want.0

I never really got the idea of growing older some how making things worse.
Though I do run into snags, where the younger generation doesn't know/understand something, and that shocks me.0 -
To appreciate where I'm at.0

I have become more comfortable with myself in my 50s! I have learned ...I guess through Wisdom, that what I think and feel is also important, I have learned that I didnt need to settle for a life partner who didnt respect or value me, one who always took me for granted. I have learned that although being a Mama is the most important job that I will ever have in this lifetime, that I also have my own life to live and that I need to live it as well! It took me 53 years to finally find REAL Love and come to the realization that I had no idea, as I have never felt this before, nor have I ever felt Loved and Cherished and that I do Matter... like I now feel!! There is never a time that we have to think its too late for change and sometimes that change is all we need to start our lives over and find that Happiness and Contentment that God always intended us to have...otherwise, why would he give is the greatest gift ever...LOVE???1

I have learned a great many things in life but most of all I have learned it’s not fair. You control though how you choose to feel from the unfairness. You either are bitter or go with the flow change the unfairness. Also I can eat my dessert first with a martini in the middle of the day if I want to. 🍸 🍰0

I can eject negative people out of my life very quickly now.1

I know hard work is important for developing and maintaining habits.
I'm not afraid of hard work.
I don't tolerate anyone talking down to me.
If you like me, great. If you don't, then you really don't matter.2 -
At 37 is when I felt a shift.
I no longer care what others think about me, at all.
It doesn't mean that I've lost manners & social graces, just that I don't second guess myself all the time.
That's good & bad, cuz I also no longer bite my tongue, after years of holding in true feelings as to not hurt another. Now, I say what I think & don't care if it offends others... nor do I apologize if they are.
Again, I don't search out ways to stun others, but if people mistake my soft spokenness or kindness for weakness... they elicit verbal wrath & I don't care about the consequences.
The latter can be problematic cuz standing up for myself has ended relationships with family & friends (for the better, for me) & ruined relationships at work (never a good outcome).
I'm not going to make myself feel badly or suffer in some way in order to allow another to feel good. Those days are forever gone.2 -
Retirement came with age. Seriously the best thing that's happened to me; no work related stress, no need to eat constantly to bury my emotions. Time to finally call my own. Time and energy to exercise. Time to help my sister in her life; she has a dh who's suffering from Alzheimer's. I feel such a reconnection to her and her dh that I've missed while living for work.
I also notice a huge desire to see more places, do more outside activities(now if I can just find an outdoor buddy).
I also say more of what I think. I used to always be a yes ma'am kinda person and not speak my mind.1 -
I've taken on roles and responsibilities with high physical demands that people far less than half my age were afraid to do, or simply couldn't. Not because they were physically incapable. But, more so that they were psychologically not ready to.
While I'd like to say "Age is only a number". The truth is that it's a reality. It affects us all a little differently. So, get out and do something that you've wanted to try while you still can. I've lived a great life, being able to do many of the things I have because I took a chance and did it. Still have quite a few years left to experience more...3
