Growing older as a woman is one of my greatest joys. I counsel and support a lot of younger women, most of them gorgeous and in good physical health, almost all cisgender and many bi or queer or gay, and would not trade places for anything. They envy me my confidence, wisdom, experience, resilience, radiance, self-assurance, body acceptance, sexual skills, relationship skills, empathy, patience, ability to handle life challenges and career challenges, emotional balance, sister network, career skills, artistic skills, and deep mature sexiness. These are things that take a lifetime to develop and nurture, and oh the rewards. I LOVE BIRTHDAYS. I CELEBRATE ANOTHER YEAR OF BEING MYSELF IN A WORLD OF AMAZING SOULS AND INCREDIBLE BEAUTY. I turn 47 in 3 days. Every birthday is better than before. Hope I am still living learning loving and trying new things when I am 100.
