Quotes 

“After exercising on my own, I’m now receiving guidance from an expert. They’re someone who’s done a lot of research on the body, and they make me do things like handstands and yoga poses. I like that. I really like the energy that comes out of activating parts of my body that I hadn’t been using much.”

“I was living competitively to get by in my twenties and thirties, so I didn’t have time for that. Now that I’m in my forties, I inevitably have a bit more freedom. I can make more time, and I’m economically supported. Living like this is enjoyable, but I do also wonder whether it’s immature to do what I want at this age.”

“Although marriage isn’t necessary… I feel there is a certain perspective where people look at me and think, ‘Is playing around like that still fun?’ Even my friends seem more adult-like than me. There’s a certain responsibility and restraint you get from starting a family. On the other hand, I’m chasing rainbows and have a lot of things I’d like to do.”
