i like watching grace and frankie on netflix. frankie is so warm and full of life. she really appeals to me. sadly, i concluded today, that out of the two of them, i'm probably more like grace. ugh. so frustrating. it's hard to know if it's nature or nurture, or a combination of the two. i do hope that as i go through life, that i can continue to let go of all the things that bind me. i know that i have wiggled free of quite a bit.
i was thinking recently about myself in my early twenties. i don't really have any patience for that version of me. i'm startled sometimes when i think about all the experiences i had never had or even knew about. i don't even think i'd ever had guacamole until my mid-20s. like, that's weird to me. maybe in about 15 years, i'll think of who i am now and i'll just seem like a fraction of myself. i know i still have a lot to learn, and a lot growth and development ahead of me. i'm grateful for the gentle patience my loved ones offer me as i slowly get it.
