Author and actor Miranda Keeling posted this on Mastodon, where she frequently posts interesting fragments of conversation she overhears in everyday life:
"Woman in a supermarket: Fake it til you can’t be bothered anymore, and then just be yourself."
This has been one of my core experiences of aging. A lot of faking/masking/figuring stuff out for the first 30 years, then the last ten years steadily moving toward where I am now: how could I possibly be bothered to be anything but myself?
I originally posted this to my Mastodon account.
