Day 18: Reflections on growing old

No, no. It's not my birthday or anything.
I was thinking about my younger self this morning. And how she was able to contain her Rage.
Yes, yes - angry outbursts, indignation, all that, yes. But she could deal with it - allow it come to her, consume her and still be resurrected.

Now, only a few years later, I crumple at the first spark. I'm tired and feel like I have no strength left at all.
Sigh.

Or maybe I was so much older then and I'm younger than that now.
