I love being over 40 because I feel I’ve grown into a complete woman with so much personal growth, and yet I’m just beginning to become an even better version of myself. With all the life lessons I’ve learned, I’ve come to appreciate every little thing and look forward to the next chapter. The beauty lies in knowing that I am strong enough to overcome and understand the next set of lessons life has in store for me.
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by maintaining daily self-discipline in my physical, mental, emotional, and especially spiritual well-being. I have faith in God, and because of that faith, I’ve learned not to worry. I surrender to God the things I cannot control, while doing my best with what I can. Balance and discipline help me stay true to my beliefs and maintain harmony in every aspect of my life and with the people around me. Everything I begin within myself reflects how others see my confidence & strength
What would you do with the $40,000?The first thing I would do is give a portion to my church. I would also donate some to a women's abuse shelter, I would continue supporting my niece and nephew, whom I am currently helping with their college education overseas.
