Apprehensive about the future,but only in the present can I act.

My dear,
I laugh nonstop when I’m consumed with happiness. I am 7.
I am swept away by the lightest of kisses. I am 13.
I’m not afraid to speak my mind. I am 18.
I know when not to speak my mind. I am 28.
I know that love takes many forms. I am 35.
I know nothing lasts, so I enjoy everything to the fullest. I am 55.

I am all the ages I’ve ever been.
​

What has each of your ages built in you?
Falsely yours,
Anne Lamott
