Wrinkles

At the end of a long, memorable, productive, important life, what will people see when they look into your face? Wrinkles! And they won't be thinking, "That face shows a joyous, effective, meaningful life" either. They'll be thinking, "boy is that woman Old!” Well, I'd like to change all that and I'm asking for your help.

It's important to use your communication skills to change the world around you for the better. Why start with wrinkles? Well, I've written articles about grace in politics and faith just before, but it struck me that i never did start at the start. In order to start a mobility for world grace, I think it needs to begin with something more general and easier to discuss. If you think of it in colloquial movie terms, this article is a prequel.

Every one of us, if we are endowed, will live to see the day when our face has an abundance of facial lines and lines. There will come a day when even the fresh-faced, four-year-old will be weathered. I'd like to start at the beginning with one thing we can probably all agree on and feel confident enough to pass along. I say wrinkles are desirable and I'm going to prove it.

The situation for Wrinkles:

 1. Wrinkles are better than the choice

 Yes, given the alternative to growing old, wrinkles come in on top! Death is a very distant second! Once you realize how much worse you could have it, facial lines don't seem so bad.

 2. Wrinkles are soft

 Yes, the more wrinkled your face is, the more supple it gets. My 11 y/o son loves to touch my 48 year old face and always remarks, "It's so soft!”

 3. Wrinkles are knowledge

 The more wrinkles you have, the more knowledge you must have acquired, even if by sheer luck you just know things younger people don't. You've lived through stuff.

 4. Wrinkles are earned

 Wrinkles are not some honorary badge. They are earned! Not just anyone can have these babies! Laugh lines mean you must have chuckled. A joyous life, even if fraught with struggles, is a prize, indeed. Wrinkles mean you've experienced, you've persevered. Wrinkles mean you have really resided.

 5. Wrinkles show you have figure

 Wrinkles are character lines and mean you aren't just any old body, you're a character! Wrinkles make you cute, cuddly, cute, wise, and worthy of recognition!
