37 Reasons Why You’ll Love Being 37
A few years back, I wrote a magical list why I loved being 30s that I still, ADORE. I remember telling my mom on my birthday, wow, I’m so close to 40 (kinda scared) and she told me something I’ll never forget: you age only if you want to, age is only a number and shouldn’t define who you are or how you feel.
DANG. SO. TRUE!
So, today, with each passing year, I want to tell YOU 37 reasons why you’ll love being 37.
Shall we start?
