Beauty Only Lasts So Long

I was watching an old movie from the 40's and an old lady actress playing the part of a rich upper crust snob did such a good job I just had to look her up online. I ran across an early picture of her and just could not believe my eyes! 😲
Only goes to show you how the rose fades and withers all too soon in this life.

must be whats wrong with me........
Me too hillbille! I think that gal just may be Stevie Nicks Great Grandmother! 😁
True Brookwood, but ugly lasts forever!
Remember, beauty is only skin deep but ugly goes all the way to the bone. I'd post a picture of a lib politician to illustrate my point but I don't want to get banned.😁 Bob
Stevie Nicks. Did you say Stevie Nicks?
Knock out for sure. I think I will just "Stand Back" and dream a bit.
Sadly we all suffer as we age but looking in a mirror every day it slowly creeps up on us
But like your post looking at old photos of nice looking gals or even the leading men of the past and skipping ahead 40 or so years it's way to obvious and sad
Dogs are scared of me😱
Yes, we all look good until we marry and have kids.. ha
Bridget Fonda. Pic taken yesterday.
Oh God .......... my eyes, my eyes
I don't know, when I get out of the shower in the morning I look at my naked body in the full length mirror and marveling at the beauty of my 64 year old body I am flabbergast. Others may think differently but they must be blind.
After reading your post, I am sure one of us is!😄 Bob
I hate to burst you bubble about this. I had cataract surgery about three years back and I remember the next morning looking in the mirror and was thinking were did all those wrinkles and dark spots come from ?? !!!
Oh yeah!!
Audrey Hepburn ... still makes me weak in the knees
I will only add thank goodness for light switches and a great imagination on what use to be lol
The greatest thing about being in a lifelong relationship is that I still see the beauty of that 17 year old gal I married some 48 years ago!
Brookwood.
Totally agree, got you beat by 2 years on both counts
Working on 54 for us and she is beautiful to the core.
One man told his son, "Beauty is only skin deep, so, if you marry an ugly one, skin her".
"Beauty fades, but DUMB is forever"...Judge Judy Schienlin
There is a similar one. Beauty is skin deep, but ugly goes all the way to the bone.😀
wife and I been marred 43 years this June have grown old together . have to look past the wear and tear of time we have accumulated in March we hit another year I will be 65 she will be 63 just have to remember all the efforts that got us this far in life . ( I know my looks sure did not do it 😁 )
