"There seems to be an unwritten rule which equates beauty with youngness. Martha Stewart, 81, credits organic home grown eating and yoga to her youthfulness.
Let's not forget the amount of privilege her lifestyle requires.
Apo Whang-Od, 106, is a tribal tattooist in the Phiippines.
Her eyes reflect back all that she's witnessed over a century of lived experiences.
Both women are beautiful in their own right.
There is beauty in wrinkles.
These are markers of a life hard fought for and well lived.
Anti-aging is not a beauty standard.
Authenticity is."
