We who are in our fifties: steps away from our youth: steps away from our elder years. We who wore baggy bloomers to gym class and roller skated without helmets: fearless ones we were in our youth. We who stood up for our causes: our children: our families now stand slower. Our pace is peppered with fear and what ifs…and so we may sit out like awkward teenage wallflowers instead.
We who are in our 50s: who put career: kids and community first: may now walk alone and wonder where the “I” went? We must band together once again and be fearless: we must listen to our hearts. We who are in our fifties: seasoned by life and nurtured by spirit: we have the wisdom and the courage to face our fearless once again. We owe it to the world to live our best lives: to establish communities of creative passion: to leave legacies of lasting change. We are the ones to say “Enough. My heart will flutter with joy again. My step will be strong. My dreams will NOT be denied. I will live fearless from this breath onward.”
We who are in our 50s: steps away from our mini skirts and platform shoes: wil not be invisible: no we will be INVINCIBLE. It’s your time you women who are in your 50s.
Go live your best life: don’t let your heart beat one more beat denying you deserve it all. You do and you will. Go show the world what you already know: start a movement: create change: but most of all you: woman in your 50s: be fearless.
