Just wait, your 50’s will be better than your 40’s! I am now in my 60’s and I have never been more at peace and more content.

[@emzicoolintheuk]

I love this I just turned 50 and I’m wondering when I’ll feel the same. It’s a shame it takes most of our lives to reach that. Thanks for sharing. X

Love hearing people aging happily. I'm 33 next month and my life just keeps getting better the older I get - don't understand people who are so afraid of aging!

[@gloriadavidson8599]

Totally agree age really does in my case brings peace and acceptance of myself understanding it's ok to be me 💖
