It seems to be more fun when we act foolishly right now, knowing exactly what we're doing. Mahd: So true, and such wise words.

Before, we participated in foolishness because we didn't know better. Now, and more satisfyingly, we participate in it because we do.

So the 365th day was surprisingly good, and full ofunexpected surprises. <b>Gboy:</b> That is precisely the message of the post to me, and why I chose to share it today. We get older, so why worry about the appearance I described back then, which was really only in my mind. This piece makes me laugh at my younger self, yet she had a point to make. And like you, I compare with people my age, and often end up with a smile. No man boobs on me! :P Noted, hey? The Cléa files must be getting rather heavy! ;) Thank you Gboy, the sands of time were etched beautifully. <b>Edrei:</b> I like that thought! An anniversary of a certain birthday, that is a lovely and lingering sentiment. Thank you Kami :). And yes, I am smiling :). My dearest <b>EM:</b> thank you so much for the vote of confidence. Grazie bella! xx Dear <b>Younger Cléa</b> So glad you could pop in and remind me that you had bad days too. And how can I forget sticking my tongue out at the mirror? Pfft indeed! What were we thinking?! Let me thank you for writing this piece in the past, just to remind me that mirrors only reflect a state of mind. Older Cléa PS You should see the lipstick I use now. Pure velvet!

Pfft to the comment on pale cheeks, skin, and slender figure! Take a good look in the mirror. Next time you look, remember to smile, or else, poke your tongue out and I'll come around. Happy Birthday to you from the Past. Younger Cléa PS Keep that lipstick. Dear Older Cléa

Truthfully, there is nothing I can think of that puts into perspective the past that you have lived through and the present that you live in now. Though there is one thing I can say in times like this. Happy anniversary of your 21st birthday. May you never grow old but always grow up. That is definitely something to smile about.
