Well right.
With
that thought in mind I have to tell you that I
have been totally creeped out by the recent photos
of Caitlin Jenner.
Her idea of
what it means to be a sixty-five year old
woman makes my skin crawl.
I suppose
what really worries me is not Ms Jenner
herself, but the adoration
of the camera.
The cries
of, "How brave she is!"
But getting
old requires bravery.
And evidently
being able to see
the colour of the soul
under the story written on a sixty-five year old face
the colour of the soul
under the story written on a sixty-five year old face
is a skill the very rich have been denied.

Welcome back, Francie! I missed you! Love the name of your new blog!
ReplyDeleteI agree that we all have a very distorted and fear-ridden view of aging in our society. But remember that poor Caitlyn has been mixed up with the Kardashians for years and years. It would be surprising if she were NOT caught up in this superficial viewpoint.
I'm so happy to see you posting again. And like Debra, I love the name of your new blog. I hadn't realized that you'd started a new one. Will catch up when I get back later today. On my way out...
