It's so good to read the well-considered words of an emotionally mature, grounded woman. As one who turns 65 later this month, I thank you for this, dear Susan.
Yes! That's how I feel. Also 55 and loving where my head and heart is at. Less so the 'thinning hair and surprise farts' (see Karin Schimke, author of Love Letter for reference). Susan, I discovered your writing today and I'm so glad I did. 'But the quest for a quiet life is really about attention, and how to direct it'. A beautiful reminder that we can access the quiet whenever we want by paying attention to the present.
