As a woman who's 41 in 2010, I too find turning 40 to be liberating and decisive. Life is precious and this is very evident to me for I find myself often staring at my children and thanking God for such blessings and the life experience that I am able to offer them.

I was glad to reach 40 because I too thought that I would die really before 30 BUT God! I'm thankful for the lessons that I've learned whether I wanted it or not; I know that they all are working for my good and I plan to take my 40s on like a whirlwind storm! I'm not leaving any stone in the same spot. I'm grateful that God found favor with me and has entrusted me to do His work!

I enjoy your take on age and mortality, on seeing what we take for granted as the gifts they are. Like you, I spent my 20s and 30s acquiring. Relationships, stuff, status. The 40s have been a time to take stock, and to de-acquire some of the things that really don't suit me. I'm SO enjoying that, coming into my own. Thanks for your comment on my blog today. Nice to "meet" you! Happy belated birthday to you!
