Welcome to Goldivas.com, for women over 50 who are too young to be old.

 

TURNING 50 By Susan Adams   Racing there with frantic shock And digging heels to slow the clock. Packing all the travel in Before the limbs grind, weak and thin And terrified of gravity.   Disbelieving age can mark As tree rings toll the ancient bark. The time spent well, the candle lit At both ends ‘til the center’s hit Scared silly of senility.   Stillness beckons like a witch A temptress of the aging bitch. A voice says “finish up in time, Before you feel quite past your prime,” And fearful of futility.   Yet still the young girl comes to call The makeup covers all the flaws The mirror a friendly gentle wish The meet the girl, that sexy dish And hopeful still of agelessness.         E-mail this article to a friend

I think we all dread turning 50 when we're younger - we imagine that older people envy us & wish they were young. But, when we get into our 50's, we understand there are many advantages, and many women say it's the best time of their life!

Keeping busy, making new friends and being active makes life after 50, and many years beyond, fun even with an occasional ache or pain. Having some money saved helps too.
