NOTHING. LOL
You don't have room to talk about getting older. You're still a baby.
What do I like about getting older? Driving. I don't have to ask my parents to take me anywhere anymore.
I'm so tired today, I wish I were my shoe size (38 European) instead of my age (55).
We're in the throes of TOM SAWYER, a play with a cast of 35 on a minute stage. The first performance is tomorrow and I'm already exhausted. My crew (props) is ready, though. Maybe what I like about being older is that I don't have to work so hard at being COOL. I watch the teenagers around me (in the play and in my classes) and think, "Man! I'm SO GLAD(!) I'm through with the pain of adolescence! I don't have to agonize over getting boys' attention." So, even if I'm tired, I'm GLAD I'm older. Besides, I may be aging, but I can still keep up with my crew of 7 and work with them to paint huge backdrops (20'x9'), run on stage in the dark to put tombstones and bushes in place, and drag big stage pieces around with the best of them! What a blast! Yeah, it's OK to be over 50.
I love getting to know the Jesus of the Bible instead of the Jesus of the church. Right now that's my favorite thing about getting older. Knowing that I'm all right in His eyes.
Learning to like who I am. Knowing God loves and forgives me no matter what new sin I come up with. Growing in His grace and knowledge. Finding my purpose. Getting better at writing. (each year makes a difference!) Reading all the new Christian fiction in the bookstore.
I care less about what people think and speak my mind a little more. Of course, some days I revert and feel like I'm walking around with TP perpetually stuck to my shoe. But I'm getting there. Some things I take more seriously. And other things roll off my back like they didn't when I was younger.
And I love that I can say, "Face it girls, I'm older and I have more insurance." When Fried Green Tomatoes first came out, I was the younger version in the neat little car. Now I'm the older version driving the battering ram. Talk about full circle. :)
Oh I hope the play goes well!! I used to run the Christmas plays at church and I do NOT want to go back. More power to you!
I...errr...well, I'm not really old enough to say that I'm getting "older" in the same sense I guess. But I do like that it's finally okay to show passion about something. It's never cool to have passion in high school unless it's about the typical high school junk.
I am not accused of being typical. Unless it's being a typical writer, which then would be atypical from anyone else.
Hallelujah, I'll be done with the teenage years in 2 months.
Pet zucchini, lol? I LOVE that you brought it places with you, hoping your folks would take pity and finally get you a pet!
Hmmm...I guess the only thing I like about growing older is my growing relationship with the Lord.
And getting wiser with age.
And being able to share some of what I've learned with others.
