is,
‘Reflecting
with
gratitude
on
the
start
to
the
year.
How
has
your
start
of
year
been?
Did
you
make
any
resolutions?
If
yes,
what
were
they?
I’ve
had
a
very
fulfilling
start
to
the
year.
So,
so
much
to
be
grateful
for
for.
Starting
with
the
privilege
of
pursuing
family
fitness
on
New
Year’s
Day.
Followed
by
an
incredible
birthday.
Thank
you
once
again
for
all
your
warm
wishes.
Had
a
an
adventure
outing.
Grateful
for
the
family
time.
And
Pataal
Lok
that’s
out
on
the
17th.
Lohri.
Makkar
Sankranti.
The
flowers.
Warmth
around
me
and
in
my
heart.
P.S.
Managing
to
hit
my
goal
of
30
min
or
less
on
social
media
a
day.’

has
a
lot
to
say,
‘We
have
an
outbreak
in
our
society
of
perfectionism
—
and
that’s
why
menopause
and
the
wisdom
of
ageing
is
here
to
cure
that
The
battle
feels
like
a
battle
and
the
struggle
with
society’s
beauty
myths
and
labels
is
so
exhausting
at
times
I
wonder
if
there’s
not
a
deeper
wisdom
in
embracing
this
age
that
I’m
missing
—
letting
myself
get
rounder
and
softer
physically,
sweeping
all
the
supplements
into
the
trash.
Wearing
only
comfortable
shoes.
(Oh
wait,
I
already
do
that!)
‘Plucking
those
chin
hairs
at
the
table.
Poking
fun
at
the
slavish
trend
following
Gen
Z.
(As
if
I
wasn’t
that
girl
once)
‘I
imagine
the
energy
and
time
that
would
be
freed
if
I
stopped
getting
manicures
and
colouring
my
hair.
‘I’d
like
to
dedicate
myself
to
writing
full
time,
creating
art,
going
on
spiritual
pilgrimages,
nostalgia
and
eating
whatever
I
please.
I
remember
my
mother
and
grandmother
and
how
comfortable
they
seemed
with
a
community
of
women
their
age-
trading
recipes
and
stories
and
never
attempting
to
appear
younger
than
they
were.
‘What
the
hell
has
happened?
‘And
as
Zeenat
Aman
said:
Who’s
the
genius
that
decided
Auntie
is
a
derogatory
term.
I’m
a
proud
auntie.
‘Women
—
of
all
ages
but
particularly
the
elders
—
are
the
glue
and
wisdom
keepers
of
this
world.’
