Her One Philosphy on Aging
“My philosophy on aging is, it’s going to happen.
If you are incredibly lucky, you will get older, and it will be absolutely fine.
Being old is a part of your life.
It’s like, No, it’s not going to happen to me.
I’m going to be the one person who miraculously will stay 20 for 200 years.
Well, it’s not going to happen!
You are going to get to be 60.
You’ll find it’s fine when you get to be 60.
But you’re able to only get to be 60 to understand that fully.”
Don’t worry about it.
It will be okay.
And and that’s the great journey of life, and you are on that journey with everybody else.
Just accept that fact and enjoy the ride.”
On Her Morning Routine
“I’m not a ritualistic sort of person.
I never do the same thing twice.
I never put the same moisturizer on twice.
I just grab things.
I think, Oh, I feel like that today.
I don’t believe in any rituals really, honestly.
And some mornings, I’m late, and I do not have time for anything.
