The one I dated was in her early 20's,

Was not into witchcraft or celebrity gossip.

Didn't do yoga or meditate.

Couldn't have told you the first thing about Buddhism or Hinduism.

Wore regular glasses

No piercings or tattoos or funny colored hair.

She is an artist with real talent. Her skills with an airbrush are still amazing. But she's more into designing and making jewelry these days. To be fair, we did need to have a discussion about painting the basement door a purple color with white and yellow flowers one time.

46 years later, she no longer reads the astrology column in the news paper

Cares even less about witches or celebrates

Still no yoga or meditation

Still wears regular glasses

No piercings of tattoos. She doesn't even dye her to cover the gray anymore.

Still clueless about Far East religions

But, her artistic talents are still on display. Though I wish she would pick up her sketch pad and air brush more these days. I miss her cuddled up next to me on the couch on a cold winter's night and quietly sketching away while I watch. And her artistic skills live on through our Daughters.
