Time for a little personal post.

So, fun things happen with aging. Around when I turned 30, I started to notice some light brown "splotches" on my forehead in photographs. I thought it was just sunburn or something. Gradually, it became more noticeable, and I realized I also had some underneath my eyes. I learned that this is called melasma, a form of hyperpigmentation that can happen for women due to hormone fluctuations. It's volatile and difficult to treat. As a chronically ill person with little energy, little money, and truly no interest in cosmetic treatments, I don't plan on using lasers or peels to try and treat it. But it's hard to accept. I am self-conscious and insecure about it. I am afraid it will get worse, that it makes me look old, etc.

The funny thing is, I rarely notice it in other people. And I certainly don't find it ugly. Yesterday I realized an example of this. I remember reading a quote from David about playing Polka Dot Man and how he had "spots" on his body as a kid that he was teased for (I believe vitiligo, not certain). I just sort of assumed it went away. Then I saw a fan blog post a photo saying "I love his spots!" I didn't even notice them. But I felt emotional, like, could someone love my spots? (My partner does, btw.) Anyway, yesterday was the first time I saw a photo of him where I could see the pigmentation differences on his chin and neck. I hadn't even noticed it, all this time. And here I am thinking, "everyone who looks at me must be staring at my brown spots. It must be the first thing they see. It makes me look old and ugly."

Absolutely wild, the way we see ourselves compared to other people.

Everyone said to me for 26 years: “You’re white as a ghost! Do you ever go outside? No? Good god, you need to get some sun on you.”

Now, after just 2 years of birding, I need skin cream to remove sun spots on my upper lip. Ugh. Who knew that there’d come a time where nothing can keep me inside for long? (Or that buying an expensive beauty product would inspire a sappy post?) But learning about birds and bird photography has without a doubt been one of the best uses of my free time. Yes, I’m a busy adult, and a student, but birding slips so seamlessly into my daily routine now that I can’t shake the restlessness of its absence if it’s forced on me. Only writing (and bowling, when I did it competitively) has compelled me to get out of bed without a second thought like this in the past. Anyway, thanks for letting me share my new found love of birds with y’all. ❤️
