Old

The portrait above is just a picture from an artist on the internet that I found when looking for pictures to illustrate old age … But it has also become a portrait that has stayed with me to illustrate so much more; wisdom, beauty, serenity …

Old age should be celebrated! Hey, not everyone gets to be old! So … if we get there we should be proud … and see that it is hard work, luck, perseverance and GRACE!
