Do any of you feel a lot younger than your years? I'm 30 (?!). I feel about 12 a lot of the time. I walk, and feel like running, there is a spring in my step, an energetic need to jump, to dance, to giggle. Conversely, I sometimes get an extreme sense of immobility, when my legs feel like lead and are hard to move. It's either one or the other, with me. The intense energy tends to come first thing in the morning, and often after an interest binge. I feel about 5 ha!. How can I be 30? Adult? What?
I'm 58, and often feel as naive as a 12-year-old. On the other hand, a large part of me is glad that I haven't grown up. Keeping in touch with my inner child is what feeds my imagination and my writing.
Yes, it's good to stay young in heart, and to stay connected with the energy and life blood at the heart of existence.
