Julia, what a wonderful post! I loved watching the video and what sheer beauty and fun you all were having. This quote is great: "The only limit to living life is the set of limits we place on ourselves." It's so true. Putting limits on ourselves negates true living. The world is limitless. Thank you for reminding us readers (and watchers) of that, as well as tackling the ageism that exists in our society.

It really is up to us, Beth., Age does come, death has a purpose, but so does life. Death teaches us to love life. So....let's!

Brilliant! I just became a grandma on Sunday at the age of 49 and I was telling my friend how my next step is to get a new tattoo with my grandson’s name and to learn to surf. She was surprised saying “you don’t sound like a grandma!” I wasn’t a “traditional” mother and I stand in solidarity with you beautiful ladies who are the embodiment of LIVING and breaking the mold of what society expects “older” women to do (or not do). I am inspired and sending deep gratitude to all of you for pioneering the way! 🙏✨💜🌈🫂
