At Halloween
At Halloween and most events
One hides behind a mask;
With Age Esteem one sheds pretense
And challenges each task!
So switch your witch’s costume act
And subdue the ghosts of youth,
Stay young and age with fun and tact
And subscribe to Bonnie’s truths!

Happy International Day of Older Persons
“The world population is rapidly ageing. Between 2000 and 2050, the proportion of the world’s population over 60 years will double from about 11% to 22%. The absolute number of people aged 60 years and over is expected to increase from 605 million to
2 billion over the same period.” (World Health Organization)
Age is not what it used to be. We are living longer and fuller lives. Age-esteemers know there are joys to being an older person. Age-esteemers continue to contribute their expertise and talents to the world. Age-esteemers love, laugh and make the most of what they have.
Join AgeEsteem® in celebrating this day of recognition for the contributions of older people.

Visitors
The family’s here, it’s so much fun,
So much to do, so much we’ve done.
We’re in! We’re out! We’re here and there,
The dishes wait, but then, who cares!
I try to act like I’m sixteen
(That’s when I practice Age Esteem!)
Life borders on the near sublime
It’s good to pay no heed to time!

Happy Mother’s Day 2013
What is your favorite memory of your mother?
In several countries of the world, today is dedicated as Mother’s Day. It is a day to honor our mothers and to recognize all that they have done and continue to do for us.
I would like to give a special thought to the single mother who is juggling motherhood with working to earn an adequate income, often entailing more than one job, to clothe and feed her children.
I would also like to recognize the Grandmothers around the world who are raising their grandchildren.
Let us celebrate all who are acting in the role of Mother, whether temporarily or permanently.
Bonnie Fatio

Not a mother? Read on.
This week-end we will honor mothers. Mothers are the breath of life. We are born from the womb of our mother.
However, she may not be the one who is there to raise us. For numerous reasons we may be raised by someone who did not give birth to us. – And this person becomes our mother, the one we turn to for oh so much in life.
Even those who do have a mother in the home are often raised at least partially by someone else. We have many mother figures in our lives. These are women who guide, mentor, encourage, support and advise us. They are our role models for relationships, work, finance, education, health, and savoir-faire. These women are equally precious in our lives.
Are you one of these women? Then you too are to be honored on this Mother’s Day. You have an opportunity to make a positive difference in the lives of young girls and women of all agesthrough your example and your interest in helping them become confident and to reach their greater potential. – And there is no age limit for this.
Women with age esteem mentor other women of all ages.

MAY EACH DAY OF YOUR YEAR BE FILLED WITH LOVE!

The Holidays are almost here,
Oh where has gone another year?
Did I make the most of it?
Did I rise instead of sit?
Was I worthy of the days?
Speaking in the kindest ways?
Fulfilling all my greatest dreams?
Growing older with esteem!
