I'll be turning ancient - errr that's like older than 3-0 in our age-obsessed society.
(Side note: I do however like the Dutch word: Anciënniteit - means seniority in experience rather than age).
ANYWAYS. You are not only ALLOWED to accept, to love but also LIKE yourself! Cor! what a novel idea!

They have wisdom and dark humor and facts of life to bestow upon us and I think for the most part they deserve a more triumphant-sounding title in society that reflects that. I met a 70 year old woman today who wants to get a shoulder tattoo of Van Gogh’s sunflowers. She said, “well, my husband died in May so he’s not around to tell me not to!” and proceeded to laugh heartily and mischievously. She is, I am sure, still hurting and grieving inside, but it also seems that she is proudly living for herself and doing what she wants to do, and I could sense a certain liberation in her voice that I think I’m still too young to understand the full breadth of. To reach that age and make peace with loss and to continue to choose to live a fulfilling life for yourself feels very powerful to me. I think seeking more for yourself in general is a way to age gracefully. It is about the spirit! The way that you wear your soul!

The puffin is the latest addition to more than 180 known species—many of them sharks, corals, and other marine animals—that emit a luminous glow.
The fact that so many marine animals biofluoresce "tells us organisms are using light in ways we don't even see," John Sparks, curator of fishes at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City.

I read that happiness is when your expectations falls below the reality. A new mind project for April. Good prognosis.
