An enjoyable read in Jezebel :

…. I think we can control something about aging: We can rewrite the narrative about our value and worth as we age. We shouldn’t forget what makes aging/being alive so great: the wisdom that is supposed to come with it. Some of my favorite conversations are with women older than me, because I love hearing the kinds of interesting lives they’ve had, their world-weary conclusions, their resilience, their outrageous mistakes, their pithy comebacks.
