Your description of the self that has been there all along, waiting patiently between the scaffolding of roles and expectations, spoke directly to my heart. Thank you for writing so beautifully about the possibilities our life holds as we become older- wholeness, not perfection, a life we are still crafting. Your essay was deeply moving.
