You Really Know Yourself at 40 by Providence

I haven’t turned forty yet. I’m about a month and a half shy of forty. I happened upon this site because last week I was told that forty must be great because “you really know yourself” And, I just don’t know what that means.

Does anyone know what that means, really???

Here’s what I do know. When I look at my mother who’s in her seventies, I see that she’s changed over the years. I also know that I’m not exactly the same person I was when I was 17. Other than that, I don’t claim to know myself any better now than I did when I was younger and could enjoy roller coasters.
