I never thought I would see the day that I would get gray hair. Well, it's coming. Fast and furious too.
I used to look at my Mother and say to myself, "I hope I don't gray too soon, I'd hate to start dyeing my hair." Well, that wish went down the tubes. Thank goodness for my hairdresser. She has been my lifesaver. Someday, I might decide not to dye my hair, but not yet. I've got too much to do, to worry about my hair right now. I'll continue to have my hairdresser worry about it.
My life is more important to me now that I am getting older. I want to make every minute count. There are so many things I want to do yet. I love to travel and we have been fortunate to be able to do that over the last few years. My husband and I are healthy. We thank God every day for that. Except for a few minor things that ail us, like so many other senior citizens, we have been well. We have a wonderful family consisting of three children and three grandsons.
It seems this time in our life we tend to reflect more on our lives. The past and the present. However, do we ever think of the future. There is a future for anyone who wants to make a change. Whether it is a major change or just something they have always dreamed of doing. You might have been afraid or were never encouraged to follow your dreams. It could have been the wrong time, not financially feasible, or you just didn't have the nerve.
Well, my dear friends, it's time to think of yourselves, enjoy life, and make your wishes come true. Be self-confident, happy and content. Life is short and it gets shorter every day. We need to make the most of the time we have here on earth.
Wishing you well in anything you do!
