Golden Girls

by Jorja
(San Jose, Ca)

I think the funniest thing I heard on the Golden Girls was when blanche said she looked in her rear-view mirror and there was an old lady staring back at her...so true!

I just turned 60 in July and can't believe how hard it's been.

I'm healthy, in a good marriage, OK job, love my sisters, crazy about my kids and grandkids... but still having tons of thoughts of life... what I've missed, what I still want, etc.

I tell my kids to enjoy their youth, beauty, kids etc because life goes by way to quickly. I have a friend who has been diagnosed with cancer so I have nothing to complain about compared what she is going through and try to keep it in perspective... yet, the past keeps coming back flooded with emotions....

"I KNOW"
by: GINA

JORJA,

I CAN IDENTIFY WITH YOU 100 % AS I HAVE AND STILL COPE WITH THIS. THE DIFFERENCE WITH US IS THAT MY MARRIAGE ENDED 34 YRS. AGO AND I NEVER WANTED TO REMARRY AS IT WAS A PAINFUL MARRIAGE.

UNFORTUNATELY MOST OF MY REALATIVES ARE GONE AND LOST MY PARENTS, MOM WHEN I WAS 35 AND DADDY WHEN I WAS 42. BEEN A LONELY LIFE PERSONALLY.

I DO HAVE TWO GREAT CHILDREN ONE DAUGHTER AND SON. GOD HAS GIVEN ME GOOD HEALTH FOR THE MOST PART.

I AM SEVENTY FIVE NOW .

WHEN I LOOK IN THE MIRROR WHILE BRUSHING MY TEETH (MY OWN ) I SAY WHO THE HECK MOVED IN OVER NIGHT?) HA HA.

I TRY TO CELEBRATE EVERY DAY MOMENT BY MOMENT AND TRY NOT TO DWELL ON THE PAST BUT LIVE FOR THE NOW.

GOD BLESS... GINA
