"Act Your Age"

But what about the child inside me?

What about the part of me that needs reassurance now and then?

What about the little pang of jealousy I can feel sometimes?

What about the need for a warm hug and a kiss from my loved ones once in a while?

What about the anxiety that strikes when something important is on the line?

What about the little bit of stagefright that I feel when I have an important presentation to make?

What about my dad still calling me his "baby"?

What about how I act when I'm with "you"? Someone I am comfortable being with no matter how I feel everyday.

'act your age' gives it all away...acting is for the stage...and no, the world is not a stage...

What "age" are we talking about?

What is the age of a caring elder sister?

What is the age of the girl who will always be fond of her doting father?

What is the age of a girl who is so comfortable being the younger sister?

What is the age of the girl who at times has to be the woman in "his" life,the beloved?

What is the age of a budding financial analyst?

What is the age of a woman of substance?

There is no age..because the roles we all play are eternal..they just keep changing shapes & priorities!
