Aged & Grey

in #hive-1688692 months ago

I often take calls in as per my job as customer service while working for a healthcare company sometime last year. And not so surprisingly, the majority of the orders we got came from older women supposedly above fifty and above.

I remember one time having a long conversation over the phone with a client who complained using various healthcare products and less impact on her skin.
She told me she was in her 70’s and wouldn't mind spending much more as far as her wrinkles cleared off. You're right to say she still cares a lot about her looks even in her 70s, precisely it same with most ladies. I would have said "All ladies" but we can never tell since there's nothing new under the sun.

It took me assuring her by even suggesting other collagen that would bring out the effect she was looking for but also letting her know that it wouldn't work over night as it needed consistency.

Well, I was just doing my job per se and also knew deep within me that no one, absolutely no one can cheat nature. We could only look younger than our actual age but the air of maturity brings us to the realization that we're still human and growing old and grey is part of the circle of life.

Personally, I don't worry about growing old and to be honest, I sometimes imagine myself being an oldie with my great grandkids running around the house.

And if there's one thing am scared of not achieving, is not being able to leave a legacy behind for my children.

I worry so much about the future in the financial aspect. I worry now about not being financially strong enough to forfeit the well-being of my siblings.

Having a wild imagination scares the hell out of me sometimes and I worry if I would be fit to bring what had lingered in my head since I was eight to life someday.

However, I tend to quench that thought with a positive mindset and a strong will to make my dreams a reality. I'm going to make my future babies and the ones that come after super proud that they came from me. It's a promise and a dream. As they say, knowing the cause of a problem is half solving it, the rest is providing a solution.

Good thing, am still young, although not having all the time in the world but promise to make good use of every breath in and out to fulfill my dreams in become a reality in all legible ways my interest picks in.

Awesome job @toryfestus! Keep pushing yourself and you'll reach your Hive goals before you know it.

The worse thing that can happen to anyone is dying and not leaving a good legacy for those coming after. It is my dream to be the best person and one who would make an impact. I am not afraid of growing old too and also, in the financial aspect, I am trying my best to give my kids the best life ever. You look beautiful, Tory.
