Description:Picture of me age progressed to 75 years!
If you read the journaling you'll see what it's about.
For a dare to scrap just one wish.
Journaling - At first, I thought I’d should be noble and wish for an end to hunger, a cure for the diseases, or world peace. Then humor rushed in, I thought, I’ll just wish for more wishes! Then greed reared it’s ugly head – money, fame, & material things. Then bringing my lost loved ones back to life – my mother, my grandparents, my ancestors. Then it hit me I wish to grow old & grey. Now this might seem like a strange wish for a relatively healthy 36 year old woman. But you see my mother is gone. She passed away 5 years ago from breast cancer. I lost that person that was in my corner no matter what – cheering me on and rooting for me - helping me through the lows and celebrating the joys with me. My children will never know this wonderful woman who made me what I am. I want to be there for my children – to see them graduate, get married, to love my grandchildren. I want to experience it all – to be in their corner rooting for them. My fear is that cancer will strike me down too – the family history is there. A 36 year old woman in my town just passed away from breast cancer leaving behind her three year old daughter. Can you imagine? So, you see, my wish, my one wish is to grow old & grey, that’s all.

How did you get that aged photo? I am loving your journaling! I feel the same way. I lost my Mom at 23 and the biggest regret is that she never met my daughter. I want to know my grandchildren and see them grow, as well as be the best grandmother there is! Awesome LO! TFS

Oh my, you just brought tears to my eyes...What an unselfish thing to say. I mean really, to want to see your kids grow up & see your g-children is awesome. I don't think anyone could ask for anything better.
I think this is awesome!
