| Introduction | I have a thesis that life begins at 45. But the age is probably arbitrary. I'm wondering about women, and how marriage and children and work may make us lose ourselves. Im trying to find myself again, or maybe reinvent myself, or maybe just give myself a break. So many women of a certain age I know and meet are doing the same. There is something about the woman in midlife that is energising. It's far from a crisis. |
