Talking of age

At 50, the map of how to be a woman ends. Sixty is much better. By then you realize there’s something else – a free, uncharted country. Gloria Steinem

Hi Tess,
Thanks for the title of the book. I have not read it. Have you found Ronni Bennett’s wonderful blog: Time Goes By?
http://www.timegoesby.net/
REALLY worth the read!
That’s a fantastic quote and really resonates with me. At 54, I feel like I’m in a kind of half-way house: still (despite my best efforts) a little regretful about the increasing sagging of my jawline (and many other bits of me…). Still young enough to ‘pass’ as younger and so still tempted to try and do so.
I’ve loved all the birthdays so far with a zero in them, and I’m sure 60 will be no different.
Have you read the book “Elderwoman” by Marian Van Eyk McCain? I can thoroughly recommend it.
