As a 21 year old woman I can already feel society attempting to implant in me a fear of aging. I don't want to waste time being afraid so I am constantly looking for inspiration in the wisdom of people like you. This was beautiful to read, thank you.
I am 20 years behind you Vicki, also shaping the meaning of what ageing and elderhood means to me... and looking for the crones ahead of me doing the same. I so value your work and your words xxx
Oh, Vicki. I loved all of this, and not only because I can picture the people and places, but also for your depth coupled with lightness. Thanks for being such a giving piece of—and peace in—our community.
