I stopped working on my ego death and started working on my ego birth (I’m a woman). It’s a lot easier for me to navigate and it’s more rewarding.

I started filling my moms stocking when I became an adult. I actually had to buy one because she didn’t have one before…..

I threw 50th and 65th birthday parties for my husband. He wished me happy birthday on my 50th birthday and didn't even plan a special dinner for my birthday. 😕

WHAT A POST! This is SO true. I’ve especially felt lost since I “lost my looks,” I’m retirement age. I’m rebuilding my self-esteem now. It’s hard being an older woman in America.

I stopped filling my own stocking. I told my husband that I'd tell the kids why if it was empty. He now fills all the stockings.

I was almost 40 before i insisted that we order a pizza the way I like it even though I’m the only one in my house that will eat it. I never questioned that we would get something to make my husband happy and the kids happy, and then cut what i wanted to save money. I’d volunteer to eat what they wanted because I’d only eat two slices anyway.

Bold and Beautiful Life :
apparently I didn't go to this class as a child. because I was never taught to make myself smaller or that my value is only what I do for others. and my husband never forgets my stocking, he plans things for me all the time, and we split the mental load. maybe he and I are both unicorns.

I think of this as I age. How many pictures I’ve taken of my husband, my child and my pets. I can count on one hand how many pictures they have taken of me. And Christmas… I buy myself stuff.

This is one of the reasons I’m not having kids. I’ve seen some of my friends lose their entire personhood - they’re mummy and nothing else. It looks painful. I don’t want that for me. I want to be able to give to a wide range of people, and to be able to stop giving when I don’t have anything to give that day, I want to be able to give without being expected to give everything of myself, and I want to keep some of me for me.

First marriage i threw him birthday bashes, wrote the thank you notes, kept up with his cousins, organized vacations. He never threw me a birthday and he left me alone to go to his grandfather’s birthday instead. He told me there’d be nothing to say at my funeral bc I don’t do anything. I realized that we were running off life scripts and it felt fake.

How do I teach my daughter to know that her value is simply being and walking into that room.

My first thought was not feeling safe in general like when you walk to your car especially at night. Or going for a walk outside and not wearing both headphones because you need to be aware of your surroundings.

In 19 months, I lost my mom, daughter, and my 3 oldest friends. At 73, I was finally free to be "a singular thing." The liberation is so joyful. I don't have to care for anyone but myself for the first time in my life. I'm 75, and happier than ever before.

I was just thinking that I don’t know my preference anymore. I don’t know myself because I’m too tired and it’s just easier to go with what everyone else wants
