Are you surprised as I am that I’m actually sorta consistent with my fashion post? My capsule wardrobe is kinda non-existent for the summer, but I’m making it work and being creative. Amongst all the talk about crucial issues on Twitter like Black Lives Matter and the conversation on deescalating interactions with the Police so that our African American men and women make it home, there was a light-hearted conversation about how people born in the 80’s were officially old.  I was born in the early 80’s and while I do hear a couple of my jams come on the Old School music stations I don’t feel “old” at all. Age is simply a number and that’s honestly how I view it, as two numerical digits sitting side by side. Most of the time when people inquire about my age I have to take a minute to think about it. To me, age is more how we feel than how long we’ve been on this earth. 

I think the thing we ought to remember is that no matter what age we are we’re never too old for success or too young or too old to go after what we want in life.  When you decide to stop living that’s when you start aging.  Being Born in the 80’s only means that I’m armed with three decades of wisdom, three decades of experiences, and so much more to look forward to.
