Re: As women age, what is the thing we miss LEAST about our youth???
The black and whiteness of my world. I still take things too seriously at times but not like I did. I finally understand that there truly are some grays in this world and not everything is right or wrong.
I was extremely literal. At least now I understand a pun or two.
I guess I was lucky. I did cry when I hit 13. I knew I didn't want to be a teenager -- saw too much angst and drama with my brother and classmates. I liked my 20s. I LOVED my 30s -- that was when I truly looked my best. Opinions of others truly have never mattered to me ... as long as I felt what I was doing was right, that was that. (There are advantages to having aspergers -- not many, but some.) I really wasn't too fond of my 40s. Started gaining weight, Jess was a teen (YUCK!). The 50s are what they are. Gut feeling says I'll like the 60s.
