"Longevity is a gift we should all be celebrating. The more years you have enjoyed, the more time you have lived, the more chances you have been given. Chances to take on challenges, to explore possibility, to create your life's story. Time to forge meaningful connections with others-time to love deeply, to be hurt deeply, to become a role model for all the daughters and nieces and grand-daughters and sisters and young friends in your orbit.
Instead of dreading midlife, instead of fearing forty or fifty or whatever the magic number is for you, decide now to honour it and own it.
Because the best way to age healthfully is to live fully. To take care of your body and your spirit in this moment, where you are now. You can spend your energy on love and not on worry. You can love the world, you can love the people around you, and you can love the person you have spent all your years becoming.
Yourself."
