LOL, oh ya, that's me.I remember when I turned 18 and was watching world class gymnastics on tv, and I mused that I was already too old for "Women's" gymnastics, even though I hardly felt like a woman yet, still a girl (this was ages ago when they were all really really young as opposed to now, when some are the ripe old age of 22!!). I felt a kind of loss. The person I was with said, "but, you don't do gymnastics", which totally missed the point.
You get the point, right?Anyway, nowadays, I have a hard time even conceiving of that kind of devotion, discipline, and goal-orientation. My current level of self-discipline? Heck, it's all I can do to follow through on brushing my teeth twice a day!
