anyway I think life probably starts properly in your 30s and anyone who tells you that turning 30 a guarantee of your life's downhill spiral is a lying jackass. and probably trying to sell you something. like. age is a gift, you silly fools. signs that you've lived and aged aren't shameful, they're strength and beauty and the entire fucking point

canโ€™t wait to be a 40 year old woman whoโ€™s healed from her trauma and loves going grocery shopping and lives with lifelong but manageable mental illness. and gives people nice presents on their birthdays. and Iโ€™m looking forward to being 75 and sitting on the porch in the summer when the sun is shining.

โ€œI was looking for a love unlike my parentsโ€™ love or my sisterโ€™s love or the love on a foreign kitchen floor. I wanted my own kitchen to keep clean and full of bread and milk and hot sauce and a big clean empty sink where I could wash my dishes. I wanted to forgive my mother and father for their misery and find myself a light man who lived buoyantly and to be both his light and his dark, serious baby.โ€
