I am simply not such a slave to my vanity, and I don't want to be, because as you get older you really have to start accepting the inevitable.
From Cherie Lunghi
I come from a strong matriarchal line. I was raised by Gypsy, her sister, Mary, and my maternal grandmother. The result of not having my father live with us meant that, when it came to understanding the opposite sex, it was like working without a map.
With age comes a greater wisdom, an ease and comfort with oneself.
People ask me how I manage without a man in the same tone they might ask someone how they're doing with just one lung, but it's not like that at all.
I ski every three years or so. I don't have the ingrained confidence that others do, but I'll happily toddle about a green or blue run.
The lines on your face are your medals. You've earned them, so why shouldn't they be worn with honour?
