This Belongs With My Previous Post

I fully intended to look up the following quote and include it in my modified rant against the pathetic  attempts some people make to hang on to youth and beauty far beyond their expiration dates. I just found it, so here it is.  It comes from one of my favorite authors, the wonderful George Bernard Shaw and goes something like this:

"Youth is a wonderful thing.
What a crime to waste it on children. "
                                                      George Bernard Shaw
                                                   And, even though the main message of my rant was hopefully implied throughout,  I realized that I never came right out in that post and stated the obvious .......... the bit of comfort we all can apply to our twinges of loss and regret......... that the appearance of the package will never be the main thing... ....it's what's inside that counts.
