I was talking to my Mom the other day. We speak very often; but we don't talk, I mean reallllllllllllllly talk often. So, yesterday we were having one of our heart to hearts and this is what she said to me. "Why don't you just grow old gracefully!!!" WHAT....NO WAY!!! This statement sounds so boring, doesn't it? How about growing old on rollerblades???!!! Yeah, that sounds better.
That statement makes me think of Queen Elizabeth sitting on her throne, watching the world go by as she does her royal wave!
ReplyDeleteYes, it's not what you do, it's how you do it. Surely we can roller blade, swing, skip, run, and laugh till we cry and still have some grace? I think it's about growing old with STYLE, your own personal style, which has it's own beauty and grace because it is in harmony with you! Now that's my interpretation of growing old gracefully!
Yes, you are absolutely right. Style!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't want to grow old gracefully either. Running, skipping, swinging--all sound good to me. Roller blading is a different story though.
