“I have less time, less tolerance for bullshit, more interest in good taste, more confidence in my own judgement. The culture with which I surround myself is a reflection of my personality and the circumstances of my life, which is part how it should be.” – Nick Hornsby (Songbook)
Ahhhhhh, God bless getting older. Over the past few months I’ve really been noticing that with it comes a very slow, yet very purposeful refinement of all things: Friendships – those that are meaningful, and those meant to fall by the wayside; Relationships – an unfolding clarity of what I want, what I need, and what I’ll never allow again; and Family – an appreciation for the limited time I have with the people I most love.
It started off around 29 for me, when I started trusting myself more, knowing a bit more who I was, appreciating the lessons being given. At 32, I’m just starting to sail… and I love it.
Anywho, off to work.

I love that quote!! Really sums up how I’ve been feeling as well.. the older I get the more I realize that pleasing others can’t be the priority. You have to live for you (of course with a balance) and in a way that feels right only to you. Thanks for sharing this!
