I also have two angry wrinkles over the bridge of my nose. I've written them off to my over-seriousness as a child and my tendency to worry, which my paternal grandmother passed to my father and then to me. Thank you for the lovely ending. Hope. We always must hold on to hope.
Thanks for your comment. I agree, and I think hope is the most important thing we each have to keep us moving through this world. There are some for whom hope isn't always possible, and I wish them the very best this season. Hopefully this piece will give people a little taste. Anything is possible.
I remember the exact moment I became aware of my furrowed brow. I was taking a backcountry ski class and the instructor pointed it out to me— how serious I looked navigating my way down the slope. After that, I started noticing it in pictures, and it became a more permanent feature of my face. That was a decade ago. I think I was 33.

Haha. Nice to know I'm not alone. My author pic is from almost ten years ago, and I photoshopped them out! :D
