I’ve finally arrived at the time of life where I fully accept who I am, warts and all. lol
Yes, I think our society is OCD and highly narcissistic in it’s beauty idealism standards.
I have friends who have spent 1000’s on cosmetic surgeries and have had a really hard time shifting into their middle age without extreme trauma to their egos. haha
I have an ex friend that, in part, I let go of due to her extreme narcissism.
When she was talking about getting a bood job at 54 and her mental emotional issues were HUGE I suggested she put the 10k into therapy instead, heh…THAT went over like a led balloon. haha
What do you need more? Perky tits at 50 something or some sense of acceptance and inner peace?
Aging happens, there is nothing that can, ultimately be done about the natural course of the decaying physical form.
No matter how well you eat, exercise or care for yourself you ARE going to DIE, some sooner than later.
Bah…be comfortable with yourself, didn’t we all learn in Kindergarten that we all come in different shapes and sizes?
Americas neurotic obsession with youth and beauty is highly dysfunctional and very damaging, to womens self esteem most especially.
My mantra…I’m just kickin’ back in the hot tub with some good wine and a happy brownie, let the parts fall where they may. ;-)
