Most of us are going through the next stage of our lives.
We are at that age where we see the wrinkles, gray hairs, and extra pounds.
Menopause has already shown up or is just waiting around the corner. We see the pretty 25-year olds and sigh. But, we were 25, too, just like they will one day be our age.
What they bring to the table with their youth and zest for life, we bring with our wisdom, experience and good hearts. For all we’ve been through earning each gray hair and wrinkle… raising kids, bills and ills and whatever else life has thrown at us, we are survivors… we are warriors… we are women.
While our exterior may not be what it once was, it is traded for our spirit, our courage and our strength to enter this chapter of our lives with grace and pride for all we’ve been through and accomplished. Never feel bad about getting older. It is a privilege denied to many. 💜💜
I’ll be 42 next month. When I took stock of my life just after turning 40, I recognized that I was happier, healthier, and way better off than I was when I turned 30.
