This one goes out to all the women I know. All the women for whom growing older has given the great gift of me-ness. Of knowing ourselves and who we really are, and what we really want, and how we really want to move through the world, and spend our time.
What a gift.
I cherish the ongoing unfolding of life more on my own terms than with the expectations of others in mind.
I like stepping into the shape that was waiting for me.
I like fitting into me now.
I'm impressed by how flat your stitched circle is ... perfect tension!

No idea how I achieved it Liz, but thank you! I love that quote - it feels entirely accurate for me! Go well.
