As you get older, you're going to realize that you didn't want to be a watered-down version of someone else. Or to use someone else's name or numbers. You'll feel more comfortable in your own skin. And you'll realize that who you are is all that you ever needed or wanted to be.
When I was a blue jean baby I tried to live up to Dame Audrey Hepburn's standards and live up to my own Mother's dreams for me. I failed them both in many ways. But it was a lesson I needed to learn so that I learn to be who I truly am and to learn how to just be me.
I put my Mother on a pedestal and how I broke her heart in many ways. Still, I know I'm her daughter.
Michelangelo at 80: "I'm still learning."
