Aging is a privilege, absolutely. I have a chronic illness, and I wasn't supposed to live until 30. I hit 31 last year and I am very grateful. I WANT to get older. I want to grow wrinkled and grey with my partner. It is probably something that won't happen...which is sad. But I embrace aging. So much.

Canadian Indigenous person here, our elders are incredibly valued to us, and I see aging as such a wonderful thing. I love my moms crow feet around her eyes, I love my dads forehead lines, and I have the beginnings of smile lines all around my face. I love them because it means Iâm happy and still here

This is a bit of a personal story, but I wanted to share. I've lived with my grandma for most of my life. She raised me. She has worked hard her whole life, pulling her family up from poverty to solidly middle class. She's so strong and is a huge role model for me.
A couple of years ago, we we're putting makeup on next to each other, something we often do to bond. She looked over her face, across the lines and spots, and sighed. "I wish I could afford to get this fixed." I was a little surprised. She was rarely so vulnerable, and was normally much more confident. I was quiet for a few moments. Honestly, I didn't know how to respond. After a while though, I said "Can you remind me how old your mother was when she passed?" She gave me a confused look. "She was 56. Why?" "Well," I said, "You just turned 79. Think about all the medical and quality-of-care advancements that have happened to allow you to get here. And that's not to mention your own effort. Aging should be a medal of honor. And I think you look beautiful, anyway." She actually started tearing up when I said this. She thanked me... and, mostly joking, said she'd still like to get work done đ
She just turned 81 last month, and she's still beautiful. I hope I can be like her when I'm 81!

My friend is 23 and is already talking about Botox. I asked why and she said because she wants to. I asked as tactfully as I could if she wanted to solely because she just liked the idea or if it was rooted in fear of aging/being unattractive to men. She said it was the latter but that âthatâs just how it is, if you want to be loved you have to stay sexyâ. And I cannot express how deeply chilling that was to hear.
