Playing off Ferrara's thought a little--I have never worried too much about my age or appearance. I figure I've done enough to be the age I am &, generally speaking, I'm content w/ who I am. In terms of aging & showing age, though, Ferrara reminded me that one of my favorite things about my partner, Duane D., is his wrinkles. The only ones he has are smile wrinkles & lines that should concern --the life evidence of a sensitive, loving man. I want that to be the story of my life, too.
