AGEING IS A NATURAL PROCESS, SO DON’T FIGHT IT
not looking one’s age has been hyped to such an extent that graceful acceptance of natural ageing has become increasingly difficult. the virtual world fans unrealistic goals of many and subject them to the untold misery of keeping up the facade of youth by adopting photoshop, body-sculpting and so on. many women are made to follow the youthful look even if it proves detrimental to their physical and mental health. evolving from one age to another and assuming the roles that develop is considered a matter of pride in many cultures. but in the urgency to be accepted, many resort to dangerous lifestyle adjustments/ treatments, that prove fatal at times. growing old is a natural process and no one can escape it. it is therefore important to develop a positive outlook. and it helps to stay active, both physically and mentally.— Latha Narasimhan, Sharjah
