I am definitely tucking this quote away Ruth. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve learned to march to the beat of my own drum, and living alone has probably contributed to that mindset even more There was a time I’d never go out of the house without my makeup on, hair done in some fashion, but hardly fresh-faced and hair in a bun like I do most days now. And, I don’t care how I look to go out — that’s okay as I dwelled on my appearance far too many years. Old age does not have a ton of advantages, but it gives you freedom and liberties you never thought of when you were a young whipper-snapper!
I agree Joni it seems to have come with age. I hope some of my young reader can take this to heart and perhaps waste less on their lives worrying about what others think.
I know what you mean about slipping but when I know I am doing things the right way and the way that is pleasing to God I can move forward with confidence and that’s when I know it doesn’t matter what other people think.

It does seem to be something that comes with age or maybe I should say maturity. 🙂

I find the older I get the less I care about what people think! One of the benefits of getting older.
