It was great! What I loved about these larger than life diva's was their ATTITUDE and celebrity status at the "advanced" age of 60+ I recently caught a clip on some entertainment news show of Cher, Oprah, and Tina Turner, all together, razzing the interviewer.

I plan on having style, flair, and pizazz. The older I get the more vivacious I hope to present myself. My mother maintained her beauty and sense of personal expression far into her 80s, and I so admire her for that. I remember the beads and bangles she loved, and while other people played themselves dowh, she chose to stand out. I think the key is knowing who you are, what you love, and embracing your unique take on life--and then creating that persona. Nothing like deep joy to transcend a face. I heard this great saying, "We all get the face we deserve." I want to deserve bright eyes, a big smile and lots of laugh lines. ~Carol D.
