Live by Clint Eastwoods motto... Don't let the old man in...

Jenny's post inspired me to find this quote I saved a while ago... There is nothing as beautiful as seeing women not being ashamed of their age and being mature... not forgetting their needs, and not neglecting their bodies, minds, souls... so much grace with confidence there... so much to learn about life itself with just looking at them... deserving admiration and respect if you ask me...

I guess it reverifies your thoughts about embracing oneself.

Seems right to me.


ExNameForUse replies on 11/5/2023 10:45 am:
The pictures in Jenny's post and this text match my thoughts of embracing ourselves despite what society expects or what we were taught.

EXACTLY right, Ex! Always feel SO badly for those that 'chase youthful looks' through surgeries and injections, often times disfiguring what had been GRACEFUL, aging, beauty. Check out a recent or current photo of Emmy Lou Harris with her GORGEOUS, stark white, shoulder length locks! Now in her early seventies and just a PRETTY today as she's ever been! Personally, I respect that SO much, and am GLAD she didn't succumb to the 'pressure'! Clint Eastwood's line is certainly appropriate for anyone, not just for men, and aging gracefully with dignity does NOT detract from what Peter Ustinov stated in the closing line as Hercule Poirot in "Death on the Nile" ; "I was thinking of Molière..."The great ambition of women is to inspire love."

beauty has no age
age is wisdom
age is beauty
fine lines on her face are the roads of life she traveled
nothing seXier then a mature woman

There is something so very unique in the look and appearance of a mature woman... there are no two of the same kind, unlike many younger ones that all look alike nowadays...

Nothing wrong with being proud of a life well lived


ExNameForUse replies on 11/8/2023 8:30 am:
Nothing in the slightest, dear Dreamy... I saw a meme just the other day... I think it was Cindy Crawford saying I am not 25 so why should I try to look like I am... or something like that but confirming what we are all agreeing here - there is grace and beauty in aging with dignity ...

Ex

I am delighted to have so positively inspired you!

You well know my views on women doing what comes naturally!

Sontag of-course was a trail- blazer and one of the brightest people ever!

Your picture matches the sentiment perfectly!

This is a spectacular piece of writing. I love what the author is trying to convey. Growing old gracefully is the way I'm going out. By the way, the photo of the woman is stunning

I hope this response finds you well.
Best,
Mxx

I never get tired of looking at that woman in the picture... there is something magical about her and her look and attitude she is shining through...

Hope all is well at your end, dear M xx

when you've been with someone for a long time, you see part of their youth in their eyes... and they still look beautiful

I think those who have that have the connection in a whole different level and spectrum of depths... something so special, precious and it seems to me rare...

If I'm thinking correctly, this passage appears to have come from the 'Women's Liberation' era. A lot of good thoughts came from it.

Thank you Arty... just needed some time on my own... I thought it would be better to just keep quiet until I am a little better

I am wondering how you are. You have been quiet for several week snow. I wonder if you have been ill or had an injury. I wonder is some dumb ass has scared you off of posting? But I do care about you and hope all is OK. Maybe the change in position at your job has been a bit overwhelming (but I don't think such would overwhelm you)

Hello, Ex, Rosa and several others on the Blogs have expressed concerns about not seeing any posts from you since this one. I. like many others on here, miss reading your BLOGS and, miss you, all the MORE! Hoping you are well, and perhaps just taking a break...with abiding affection, Billy


ExNameForUse replies on 12/24/2023 8:57 am:
Thank you kindly, to you, and all other my friends, for your concern... I have been a bit down lately and didn't want to share my not-so-happy thoughts here with you, so decided to be a little quiet until I am feeling a little better...
