Beauty of Aged Faces

There is such beauty and wisdom that shows in the faces of those who have lived long, toiled hard and laughed as much as cried. I found the following quote on a fellow pinner's board and hope she won't mind: Let me grow lovely growing old-- so many fine things do; laces, and ivory, and gold, and silks need not be new; and there is healing in old trees, old streets a glamour hold; why may not I, as well as these, grow lovely growing old? --Karle Wilson Baker (1878-1960)
