So here I am,
looking out, wondering.
How to do this?
A big question - how to do this?
I know it can be done, but
I can do this,
but it takes a lot of doing.
It's easiest in the morning.
Everything seems possible then.
What do you see when
you see me, I wonder.
I keep trying. I'm not sure
what will happen. But over
and over again, I keep
trying - because something
in me doesn't give up, not
forever anyway.

On Liking My Changing Face - a huge change,
bigger even than the changes in my face
Elsas Personal Growth Blog, Diary Blogs.
DECEMBER 6, 2007
ANOTHER HUGE CHANCE, THAT'S CAUGHT ME UNAWARES -
LIKING MY CHANGING FACE
It used to matter so much to me that I looked way younger than I was - that I was in my mid-forties and passed for under 30. It doesn't matter anymore.
A good thing. I'm 57 - and it shocks me to write that. 57, close to 60, close to utterly ancient. I don't feel ancient. I feel so amazingly young, alive, dynamic.
Yet my face - and also my body - have changed. My face - it isn't anything to do with wrinkles, though yes, I have wrinkles and I used to not have them. It's the shape of my face that is different - something about it has more substance, more power, more force, more depth, compassion, wisdom.
I'm writing this on an airplane going to France. Philippe's mother has died. Philippe is in Provence already. I'm following. The woman beside me is a young women. She is, as she's told me, half-way through her post-doc. So, over 25. Smart, competent. And yet, what a young face. Almost a teenager's face, it seems to me. Most likely, she loves its utter youthfulness.
It seems the face of someone from a different species, almost.
Who is that woman I used to be, not even long ago, who used to want to look under 30, who cared to seem very young, much younger than she was?
Maybe she was, in fact, much younger than me. Not in years, in something else.
Somehow seeming young is not a priority right now. I don't want wrinkles. I'm glad of any youthfulness I have. And yet it feels right to look as I do - if feels as if i have authority in my face - knowledge coming from having lived, from having experienced, as if there is some richness inside me that comes from the living I've done.
It feels good to look as I do.
As
always, welcome into my world.

I like my changing face. In the mirror, I see wrinkles.
But that's
not the big thing. A changing atmosphere.
