“It is not a perfect world, but today by the Grace of God I can say I am happy with where I am. There are still tears. I still hurt over some things in life, but I have seen too much goodness to not be grateful.”
The words of a mother of three who just turned 50. While many are happy to get to that half-century mark, they are also fearful of ageing for myriad reasons.
“I am celebrating turning 50, but I can’t tell you that I wasn’t somewhat anxious. Now don’t get me wrong, I know many persons have not lived to this age and so I am thanking God. But I would be lying if I said I did not think about getting old,” she said with a soft smile.
“When I look my feet and my hands I can see age stepping in and it does not always sit well with me. There are times when I long for the days of my nice young feet and hands,” she said laughing.
