Embracing my age

I know that I wrote in many of my recent journals about being the big 40.  However, I feel great so far.  I guess it is because of a birthday I just had recently.  I just could pinch myself because living another decade is a great thing.  The thing is, I don't feel like a "middle aged" woman.  As a matter of fact, I feel like a young woman who has possibilities because I am all grown up.  I am not a child and I am not old.  Oh well, I guess I am middle aged after all.  For the first time, I embrace middle age and that is okay.
