Despite having no more than a passing interest in beauty products, I drop in here every now and then just because I feel uplifted somehow by the positive tone in your writing. I wish your mother all the best in her illness. Having gone through the same thing as you I was about to say that you're welcome to write to me if you want to talk to somebody who knows what it's like but it seems to me that you are dealing with it much better than I did. I hope you forgive me for giving out unasked for advice but one thing I would tell you is to spend quality time with your mother, all other things competing for your time are ultimately insignificant in comparison. Love from Iceland Julia I’m getting closer to thirty so I relate.

I turned 30 this year and I know exactly what you mean by becoming more true to yourself as you get older. I've discovered 30 isn't as scary as I thought it would be and can't wait to see how much wiser (hopefully) and stronger (definitely) I will become in later years. I read your blog everyday and found out about it when I picked up your book at the bookstore and loved it! You're very talented and on the right track. Good luck!

AND btw, if I had to guess, I would say you're 24-25.. or even less.. you are very pretty. I wish you the best life possible, for you and your family!! kisses from a portuguese fan.

I turned 28 this year as well, and my outlook on life, myself, and everything around me couldn't be better. Love this post, and can totally relate to how you feel now.
