Meet Jackie! Or... also known as Mamaw and Meego to her grandkids! Jackie wears a huge smile for many reasons. As a very active 52-year-old, Jackie has nurtured a professional career for 24 years, while also nurturing five children from ages 30 to 3 and three grandchildren (with another on the way in October).
Jackie shows that she matters with great styling, healthy eating, regular workouts with a trainer; her faith, and keeping up with her very stylish, 30-something daughter, Tori, who is rocking the world of mommy bloggers on her blog, thesTORIbook! Check it
out...worth the read!
Jackie and I both have learned that when we place ourselves on our own priority list and say I MATTER, we will be happier if we stay relevant...up to date...not old fashioned.
Reading...
learning social media...
learning technology...
enjoying life (museums, films, shows, concerts, family events)...
getting out of the house...
reading works by women our age for inspiration...those who are engaged in life....these are just a few things we can do to stay young.
Jackie surrounds herself with a large, vibrant family. I am surrounded by family, but also constantly by the high school teens I teach and interact with throughout my day. Enjoying and understanding today's youth, can actually keep us from feeling old.
Walk away from the weights which burden and age...and engage in a life which says I MATTER. Put yourself at the top of the list...it's fun!
For the rest of the I MATTER posts click HERE! Then tell us what activities keep you feeling like you matter...and then make sure you link up and visit the bloggers of Katie's Favorite Things Blog Hop!
