Age Notes

*The one rule I can break at my age is I think what I think, feel what I feel and if you don't agree that is fine with me. We are allowed to agree to disagree.

*The only thing I'd say is that learning how to forgive yourself for not being perfect is probably a really positive step.

*Kindness is a lovely quality to nurture as you get older. It makes you feel good about yourself.

*Our wrinkles are our medals of the passage of life - They are what we have been through and who we want to be.

*I'm not saying I'm a spiritually perfect person. I'm flawed and contradictory and fraught in many areas. But I'm better. I'm growing, and that's all I really want.

*My age has so little to do with my image of myself because at a certain point, the number just didn't fit how I felt - It has become irrelevant to me. I just don't feel like that number is representative of my spirit, of my energy or anything...


P.S. This is my submission to humorlife virtual symposium, which this month is on the topic of body image Body Count Body ImageImagery Is The Topic For The Ninth Virtual Symposium - Because body image goes beyond the body...

I can relate... I am going to be 52 soon, and how that came to be is beyond me.

Thoughts from the Garden...

You did indeed say it beautifully. I usually say I'm old enough now that I just don't give a shit anymore, but your way has a more positive ring to it.

These are some terrific aphorisms... and an interesting take on inner beauty as a body image!

You said so much with not so many words...love it!!!

Always tell the truth
Use kind words
Keep your promises
Giggle and laugh
Be positive
Love one another
Always be grateful
Forgiveness is mandatory
Try new things
Say please and thank you
Say your prayers
Smile

I love your line...."My age has so little to do with my image of myself because at a certain point, the number just didn't fit how I felt - It has become irrelevant to me. I just don't feel like that number is representative of my spirit, of my energy or anything..."

I can totally relate!

There are different ways to say the same thing ... and that is just fine!
Most of the times I say it your way - haha
