What age would belie

The flight of decades, consumes more of the body than anything in an open heart. I’m often overwhelmed by what I learn about growing old from the old -- or maybe, it’s really what I have learned about staying young

It isn't

It isn't what makeup you have or the color of your hair.
It isn't the dress or an old stained t-shirt you happen to choose.
It isn't the perfume or the natural scent of your skin.
It isn't any one thing I might account in which I see that you may look a thousand different ways
and each of them - every single one of them - is beautiful.
