Fifty is a big corner to turn. It used to mean being put out to pasture, but it's the opposite with me. I feel more vibrant I'm more active than I've ever been. The F-word really is freedom.

I want to be older. I actually think there's an incredible amount of self-knowledge that comes with getting older. I feel way better now than I did when I was 20. I'm stronger, I'm smarter in every way, I'm so much less crazy than I was then.
