But ageing and wrinkles, and gray hair is in His plan for us on His time table and not ours.

I understand what you are saying, but I believe he also gave us the ability to make the best of what he gave us. I can go out in the sun and bake my skin every day until it looks like leather or I can use lotions and soften my skin and make it soft and actually postpone wrinkles.

I just read a book where the author made the statement, "There is nothing more beautiful than a woman in her 40's"

ooops, sorry.

Then over the last five years or so she has gained weight a few times up to 20 lbs over her weight 27 years ago when we married. Right now it is 19 lbs more and she does not like it. She never ate junk food or snacked until a couple of years ago and now she does and she is gaining!

I think she looks fine but it is funny to see her look "thick" when she has never been. She is swimming and jumping on the trampeline every day so we will see what happens.

You are SO in trouble if she ever hears you posted this!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, I have a 41 year old niece who is not apostolic, but is very attractive, and has beautiful salt and pepper hair lots of salt. She has always seemed more like my daughter than my own daughter does, because we resemble, and I started graying in my 20's. I went through the dye for years. If I had realized how hideous it looked, I would never have done it. So she's married to her second husband, and he is one of the least attractive men I have ever seen, but he doesn't like the gray in her hair, so she dyes her hair the blue black. Her hair was never really black. She is so gray, in less than a week, you can see white roots everywhere. She's fighting a losing battle, but now she can't seem to get out of the dying mode. I may post a picture of her soon. Dye is fake, it is obveous to the one who is looking at you, and if you think no one knows your secret but you and your hair care professional, you are sadly mistaken. Because the pigments of your skin do change with age, and you do look like a corpse wearing a black wig. It is more feasable to go natural. Once you start coloring, no one has any idea how horrible the growing out process really is. And can you imagine letting three feet of black hair with white roots grow out? UGH!!!
