A letter from the Journal

Dear Grace, I have this persistent feeling that something in me has been asleep for a long time. I know I used to have it. I want to find it again. But I don’t know if this is just what getting older feels like.
— Signed, an Elegant Lady
Dear Elegant Lady,
It is not what getting older feels like. I want to say that plainly and first, because the belief that aliveness is a feature of youth is one of the most quietly devastating beliefs a woman can hold.
The sparkle you remember is not a young woman’s trait you’ve aged out of. It is a quality of contact that you learned to defer. And deferral is reversible.
The sleeping part of you is not gone. It is just very, very patient.
xoxo, Grace
