💬I may not have hit the 60 yet…..but I’m fast approaching & I have to agree. I go looking for what delights you may have waiting for me in my email. Truly I feel like it’s one of life’s little secrets. You know when you have the inside scoop on something truly special. Like the best chicken soup recipe ever, the coolest cafe in a quiet part of town, that stunning artwork you discovered because you said hello to a stranger, finding the most interesting people to talk to. Learning age is truly a number and that the older you get the less damns you give about unimportant crap (which coincidentally is all the rubbish everyone wastes inordinate amounts of time & energy obsessing over but you know it does.not.matter. At all.) Well it’s exactly like that. Thank you
💬 "Monica, this is more than just words—it’s a mirror, a map, and a quiet revolution all at once..."
You described ‘going back to go forward’ in a way that shook something loose.
I’m sitting with these questions today—and I already feel something stirring.
Thank you for holding space on this metaphorical porch.
💬 “I’m 69, and for the first time in a long while, I don’t feel old.”
After our Bible study group this week, I thought about your line—
“You’re never too old.”
And then I looked around at my friends and saw the truth in it.
I am going to feel young again.
💬 “Your words don’t just land—they settle into the soul like warm light flickering back on.”
You said dreams don’t die—they wait.
And I realized: mine is still here, whispering under the noise
💬 “I had to think about this… I’ve always wanted to paint. To write. To tell my story. I think it’s time I try.”
That message made me cry. Because this is why I write.
Not to entertain.
But to call you back to yourself.
