Character contributes to beauty. It fortifies a woman as her youth fades. A mode of conduct, a standard of courage, discipline, fortitude, and integrity can do a great deal to make a woman beautiful.”

What is this death grip we all have on youth??

I say we strap some concrete shoes on that societal norm. Come on, let's go for a swim.
 

I can't speak on behalf of every country out there but this is definitely a cultural burden here in the states (and it's heavily biased against women). And it's not like this is anything we haven't heard before.  We are all well aware of it.

As the years roll by, you're adding unique experiences and anecdotes to share. Wisdom. Insight. Appreciation. Intangible things that stand to enrich the lives of those you come in contact with.

I know there are some countries where age is revered. The respect the older generations have earned there is upheld and honored. I'd love to hear what stories anyone might have on this because this would be such a wonderful nuance to weave into our culture.

I say we start celebrating age the way we should! We are some fine wine here!

I'd be smiling down from heaven if one day someone said "Andrea? Oh she was a total pinot noir" followed by nods of approval.

Even if just for today, find a way to celebrate yourself.

Will you do that?
