“Now that you’re old, cut yourself some slack, would you?
Let yourself off the hook.
Give yourself a break.
You don’t have to do it all anymore. Take it easy for a change.
It’s OK with the rest of the world. So why not you?
For the first time in your life, do what you want.
Not what everyone else thinks you should.
Not what you think everyone else thinks you should.
Do what you want.
Excuse yourself. Say no. Back out. Beg off. Stay home. Take a rain check. Take a nap. Watch the ball game on TV.
Anything but what you’d rather not do but feel you have to for everyone else's sake but your own. And then feel bad about having done it. That's plain wrong.
And ask for some help when you need it: 'It’s too heavy.' 'It's too far.' Too near. Too cold. Too hot. Too bright. Too dark.
Whatever.
It's OK because there's always going to be something you need help with anymore.
And be grateful for the helping hand. You'll find more and more people extend one to you these days. Whatever the reason for accepting you’ve got the best excuse in the world. The only one you’ll ever need:
'Hey, I’m old.”

“Now that you are a respectable married woman, I expect you to have no fewer than two glasses with dinner. And maybe- if you are feeling daring- a glass of sherry after."
She shook her head, as though it were an automatic response, then paused and met his eyes, her gaze direct and intense. "I think I should do just that, husband. And other things that were not allowed when I was a young unmarried lady." Only just as she said that, she must have realized what it sounded like, and her whole face turned a bright shade of pink, and her eyes widened.
She looked adorable, and he absolutely, positively could not laugh at her.”
