Life Is a Party

I met Aida Bon on my last trip to Amsterdam and before I could even post her photos she sent me this lovely message below:

Well my age is a story...............

Thanks to Advanced Style I stopped worrying that I am closer to eternity than 50. I had given up thinking life was special, but it really is. With all the trouble going on in the world, it is better to do as if life is a party and hang up your own festoons every day. Advanced Style makes "us" oldies smile. Aida
