Beautiful writing on a difficult subject. The cognitive dissonance between reality and what my brain thought was real as I denied to myself that I was aging. I still go there sometimes - my head thinks I'm 25 and well, I'm not. I think you captured what women go through as they hit perimenopause and start obsessing everything in order to control something that can not be controlled. Thanks for directing me to this article. It enhanced my day since I struggle with this and I find other's perspectives very helpful. I'm your next new subscriber!

I love the quote "It's more about the attitude that we bring to whatever we're encountering in life that determines whether it's going to be suffering or an opportunity to wake up." It's so true - about everything.
