When I was in my early 20s, I was much more concerned about the way I looked. I wore more make-up then and didn’t dare go out without putting effort into it. At that stage of my life, I entertained the idea of cosmetic enhancements for the future. Nothing in particular, but I was definitely open to the possibilities. Why wouldn’t I consider something that would make me look and/or feel better?
In my 30s, I was very sure...about not getting pulled into or swayed by cosmetic enhancement options. My opinion was firm and non-negotiable. Who needs cosmetic surgery? I’m fine the way I am. If people don’t like what they see, that’s their business. Surgery is okay for other people but it’s not for me. Why would I want to look anything but my age? All those thoughts ran through my mind.
Now, my mindset has changed again. I am open to the various cosmetic choices that are available today. I’m all for trying procedures that are non-invasive cosmetic maintenance options. Who knows, in ten years I may be a high esthetic myself!
So, I guess the idea here is to never say never. Never is a very strong word and if there is one thing I have learned, it is that the only constant is change How can I be sure how I’ll feel in another 10 years? I can’t! Aging is not an event, it is a process.
