It sucks to get old
The worst part is not being able to see anymore. The best part is not being able to see anymore. As your near vision deteriorates, just don't wear glasses when you look in the mirror. Get someone else to do your eyebrows. Be aware that your new love will also have deteriorating eyesight, so when you are close in passion, you will be a lovely blur to him.
But, you know what? Its not a sin to go to a dermatologist or cosmetic surgeon and get things exfoliated, botoxed or tucked. I can't believe some of the outrage people have at this sort of thing, especially since they scurry off and get it done.
Another thing that can help is to make sure you exercise, don't over eat, keep your weight down, and do active things that make you happy. A healthy woman who is smiling is much more attractive than a 20 year old depressed couch potato.
And then, I can just quote my dad, who is in his 70s. I complained about getting older and he said, "Beats the alternative!"
