Have you ever gotten one of those kinda compliments, where your admirer regards you with a smile for a few seconds and says something like.. "Wow, you really look good for your age!"... you freeze and the realization that your foundation studded face or Jerry-curl 20's wannabe look was a rip-off. So you stand there, not sure if you want to poke your admirer on the mouth or outrightly push them down as a strict reminder "not to ever try that rubbish again".
My question is.. "Old age na bad thing?
People act like growing old is a curse. Some women have pegged their age at 35 for over 15year now.. Haven't you noticed how that part of the popular birthday song that goes... " how old are you now...how old are you now", has been conveniently striken off the song permanently, all in the bid to keep age off the record books, God dey see una o!
Anyway sha, anything wey you like do, when old age decides to show you pepper enhh...it will slap you and put leg for you as you stagger backwards.
Since people act like old age na sickness, I have a friend who has been battling with old age for years now.. she has been patching the thing here and there, wearing low-rise jeans and pushing up her boobs with some metallic bra's and ofcos showing off her teenage mouth every time she sees a camera. I saw her recently in person without the assistance of photoshop... chai! But old must be Chinese sha.. the revenge enhhh....
I'll use "Donatella Versace" to illustrate what old age badly managed and respected can do when it returns in part two of your matter.
