ANTI-AGING: Fact or Fiction
These days, with the growing population of older Americans, the buzzword is, Anti-Aging. It seems that no one wants to age.
Ever since Superman rolled back the Wheel of Time and Ponce de Leon sought the Fountain of Youth, we have been fighting to stop the aging process. I believe that the question of whether or not we can win this battle depends on how we experience aging.
Time passes. We all know that. Einstein’s Theory of Relativity tells us that how we experience the passage of time is relative to what is going on. Well, that holds true for aging as well. What we consider “old” and what we consider “young” is dependent on what is going on in our lives at any one time. It’s all relative. We can decide we are against aging –ANTI-AGING – or decide to be PRO-AGING…meaning that we are not fighting time, but instead are making the most of it.
If we view our lives only from the perspective of chronological age, we can, in fact, feel like a victim of Time. Then we will become intent on anti-aging. But if, instead, we use our years to grow and learn and become glowing examples of exquisite aging, we will enrich our own lives – and, as an added benefit, add immeasurably to the lives of the young.
After all, everyone is destined to grow old…but hating aging and spending our mature years fighting against what we fear is an inevitable decline, is not our destiny. Instead of cursing aging for what it’s doing to us, we can embrace the aging process, while doing whatever we can to be healthy and fit at every age. This is a personal choice that each of us must make. n I’ve chosen to make Time my ally, not my enemy. So, though I am certainly against old age with illness and loss of vitality, I am definitely for vibrant, healthy aging.
Anti-Aging? No!
Exquisite Aging? You bet!
What choice will you make?

Working Together - We Can Create Friendship, Business and Love
As a member of The National Writers Union for many years, I have been aware of the problems experienced by educated, professional writers. Many have been deprived of their contracted fees. Others have had their writing plagiarized or syndicated without their consent and without payment to the writer by unscrupulous publishers and authors. But the Writers’ Union has done something about that. Jointly, as a group, they have managed to fight for the rights of individual writers.

Reawakening Love Now
Reawakening love IS possible. It happens all the time. Just when you most feel like giving up, letting go and moving on, stop and reevaluate before leaving. Yes, there are some relationships that have truly run their course. Perhaps the reason for connecting no longer exists and both would be happier elsewhere. But very often, two people reach an impassem, an inevitable butting of heads and personality differences, and instead of working through the issues they just give up and leave.

Relationships are more complex than many of us care to admit. We choose a person who attracts us because of the way they look, behave and feel. And, inevitably, as we get closer and know each other better, those very same previously wonderful qualities can become a thorn in our side.

The Ultimate Virtual Assistant for Your Life, Your Relationships and Your Business
Ever since I began seeing my private therapy and coaching clients, over two decades ago, I have been longing to work with a Virtual Assistant. In fact, I wanted this type of personal assistance to help me cope with my family, my relationships, my career path, and even my health many years before this type of service became available online. When I was single, I would often choose a partner who looked good physically or sounded wonderful at first but proved to be either emotionally or financially bereft – and I thought I had made another “bad” choice.r
