The Story We Carry

Aging is not for the weak. One day you wake up
and realize that your youth is gone, but along with it,
so go insecurity, haste, and the need to please.
You learn to walk more slowly, but with greater certainty.
You say goodbye without fear, and you cherish those
who stay. Aging means letting go, it means accepting,
it means discovering that beauty was never in our skin,
but in the story we carry inside us.

Meryl Streep
