“Granny, what does it feel like to be almost 80 years old?” The question came up at the dinner table. I’ll never forget the look on my grandmother’s face. It was an expression that was nearly impossible for me to put into words. Granny took a breath and answered, “It feels… impossible.”

Minutes later, Granny found herself in the backyard, sitting in a chair across from my sister Cailin and me. I delivered my first question, “Do you have any regrets?”

Granny surprised me by answering with a quick “no”. “I have no regrets. My secret is being true to yourself and … maybe living each day to its fullest. There’s not one thing I would do differently.”

“Then what advice would you give to your teenage self?” I asked.

“I remember crying over silly things when I was your age and now I think I was silly getting upset over those things.I would go back and tell my self not to worry about small things.”

She continued to tell a story of a breakup she went through. I asked her if it felt like the end of the world at the time. “Oh, yes! And now we both laugh about it! That’s another thing I’d tell my teenage self—you gotta laugh every day. You can’t take life too seriously. Sometimes there are things that you just can’t do anything about, and all you can do is laugh and make the best of it. ”

Cailin and I thanked Granny for this conversation. And I was ready to take on the world with an all-new outlook on life.
