I was asked to send a headshot for the updated website by the marketing team at Thrive Bioscience where I work. I have thought a lot about the fact that I am approaching 70 years old for a number of reasons, partly Biblical and partly that is when I will, God willing, start receiving social security. If I do not retire from full-time work at that point, just because of the nature of life, it should not be too much after that. The thing I noticed with this picture is that I am not only getting old, I am looking old. I embrace that. Since when I was in my mid-thirties, it slowly dawned on me that it is a gift to enjoy the age you are. And, since then, I have. I love being 68 for a few more weeks. It makes it so much more satisfying because Lorena still looks like a teenager.
