I love your endless scripts with starring roles stories packed into this piece.

You outgrew your old ego. It happens to the best of us. You can’t write scripts endlessly keeping you in a Friends age and frame of mind.

Life isn’t all situations comedy. We watch our kids going through the firsts that we starred in and when they choose a mate, have a child and make you a grandmother, you realize size 16+ is your pant size not the age of your ego. You’re outgrowing your ego, one size fits all sweet sixteen is gone.

You’re comfortable in much more ample proportions around the midsections as you layer grandmother, over mother, and child-star, soon menopause will make your star go Nova. There will be scope for plenty new scripts.

Ally, I identified with your story. I, too, was that young girl playing the main role on my life stage, often the center of attention. Then I became known most often, proudly, as my son's or daughter's mom or my husband's spouse. In my sunset years, circumstances have left me to live a meaningful life alone and be worthy of main character status. Have faith, you can become a "star" again.

So relatable, obviously! And that’s the best part, I see my mum living her best life like a second inning and it gives me hope!

Here is to finding our Main Character energies again.. at all ages!! πŸ’›
