How Do You Make Peace with Aging?
Dear Meli, I'm embarrassed to admit this, because I know that acceptance is the key to true spirituality, but I really don't like getting older. It sucks. My body doesn't work as well as it used to. People treat me differently. My hair is all grey now, and I'm aware...
