Seraphina Mature

Maturity Enhances All

Some people are content to dream about what comes after. I've decided to live it. Thirty years of responsibilities, most of that time as a single mom. Two kids that turned out great. A mortgage just paid off. Retirement from a career that I didn't necessarily love, but one at which I was really great. So what is next for me? I honestly don't know. But so far it has been a hell of an adventure. Maybe we should share one of our own today. ​ --Tell me a little about you Serafina? that's a complicated question to answer. Some of it is just making up for lost time. I slept alone for more years than I care to remember. Some of it is curiosity and exploration. Frankly, I've learned more in the last three months about my own sexuality than in the entire three decades that came before. Some of it is honestly a fight against boredom. All my life I had a reason to climb out of bed and a place to be. A place where my opinions mattered; and while no one is truly indispensable, a place where I felt needed beyond just being a mom. Since our department was eliminated I've tried volunteering. I've tried taking up painting. I've tried all kinds of things. But each just seemed like more of the same. ​--But you don't seem like the type? You know what I've learned? That there is no "type". I've certainly met women who are in the hobby because of financial need. And isn't that a really shitty reason to do this? I've met women for whom sexual adventure is their driving force. They seem to be having the most fun. I've even met a few women who have no idea why they are in this life. For them it's just something to do. ​ --Are you in this for the long haul Seraphina? Honest answer, who knows. Just like one day I woke up and decided to do this. One day I'm sure I'll wake up and decide that it's time to move on to something else. That day could be tomorrow. It could in six weeks from now. Or four months. I don't know when that day will come. But I'm sure I'll know it when it does.
