“Julia…showed that it’s never too late: she didn’t learn to cook till she was 37 and didn’t start her career till age 50. She was not perfect and did not preach perfection but delight. She found her passion.”I liked this quote for two reasons:
1) Having passed the 40-year mark myself, it’s a good reminder that many of my role models didn’t truly hit their stride until the last third of their lives. I still have plenty of time to figure out what I want to be when I grow up. The best is yet to come.
2) It reinforces my belief that the world is not attracted to "perfect" people, nor people who “preach perfection”, but people full of “delight” and “passion”. Those of us who follow Christ should take note.
