The Beauty of Aging in Our Culture

 I was reading an article recently published in the East Bay Times on the Beauty of Aging.  I identified with the sentiment of the article that I am reposting excerpts from the article. It was written by Charles Blow dated June 21, 2024. Here some excerpts that I enjoyed very much. 

1. No one really tells us how we are supposed to age, how much fighting against it and how much acceptance of it is the right balance. 

2. There is after all, a beauty of aging. And aging is about more than how we look and feel our bodies. It is also about how the world around us plows ahead and pulls us along. 

3. I have no intention of raging against my aging. I intend to embrace it, to embrace the muscles aches and the crow's feet as a price of growing wisdom and grace. 

4. Lastly, Aging, as I see it, is a gift, and I will receive it with gratitude. 

Here are two more quotes on the beauty of Aging; 



Lastly here's an activity here in THD that I plan on attending- Jeff Wessmann- Joy of Awakening for Seniors, Wednesday, June 26, 7-8PM at the Cinema.
