It’s Okay to…

Look your age. Yes, it’s okay to look your age. Social media has some women in their late 30’s, 40’s and 50’s grasping at straws so to speak because in their minds they believe they still look like a 20 something year old. The secondhand embarrassment I get from reading the comments made to these women always makes me cringe and sad because no woman should be ashamed about getting older.

Whenever I see or hear some women get upset because they were told they look their age, I always shake my head in disbelief. I can’t understand why some women get offended when someone says they look their age. If you are in your late 30’s or 40’s, 50’s or older, take pride in your age instead of shying away from it. I’m in my 40’s and I love it. I look every bit my age and I carry no shame in that. Why? Because there is a level of beauty, wisdom and grace that comes when we age.
