踏進25歲,女生開始擔心自己老了。其實聽下去也挺荒謬的,若果活到80歲,25歲只是過了人生的三分一,還有三分二的精彩歲月等著妳去過呢!不過有時候亦難怪女士們會這樣想,每天望著廣告上那些零皺紋的女星,自己臉上一出現那些自然不過、淡淡的魚尾紋和笑紋,比較之下就會覺得自己年老了不少,接下來就是無謂地擔心了幾天。年齡,並不是女人的敵人,讓以下幾位前輩教導我們怎樣面對年齡這回事。

I don’t understand people getting depressed about getting older. There is nothing you can do about it, so you might as well embrace it.
Twiggy是六十年代當紅模特兒,被譽為世界上第一位超級名模。在殘酷的時裝界打滾多年,Twiggy深深明白到年齡對於自己事業的影響。然而,她抱著的態度是務實的,既然妳不能阻止年齡的增長,為何不好好擁抱當中的過程呢?

Your face is marked with lines of life, put there by love and laughter, suffering and tears. It’s beautiful.
皺紋對於作家Lynsay Sands而言,是美麗的歲月痕跡。是的,臉上、身體上每一道皺紋和疤痕都會說故事,呈現強大的生命力。

I want to grow old without facelifts…I want to have the courage to be loyal to the face I’ve made. Sometimes I think it would be easier to avoid old age, to die young, but then you’d never complete your life, would you? You’d never wholly know you.
面對老化,有人會嘗試用醫療科技留著青春,但瑪麗蓮夢露卻不願將年月的印記抹走,因為老化也是生命的一部分,抹去了,生命又怎能得完全?

There is a fountain of youth: it is your mind, you talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love. When you learn to tap this source, you will truly have defeated age.
意大利女演員Sophia Loren找到了戰勝年齡的方法──沒錯,身體會老,但心靈不老,別讓年紀成為一個阻礙妳發展自己喜歡做的事情的東西,要保持魄力和Passion呢!

And the beauty of a woman, with passing years only grows!
美麗不止是外貌,歲月的歷練會令女人越來越美。
