Title: A Blessing or A Curse
Post by: Sweet on August 16, 2018, 03:24:38 AM
How do you see menopause? Is it a blessing or a curse? And why?
I consider it a blessing because I don't need to use you-know-what.  :cutecheerleader: There is much negativity about menopause that I choose to see the bright side of it instead of going with the flow.

Bless you Sweet for having such an attitude in life. I wish I had your positivity. I'm already anxious about coming to this stage in my life, and I might become a person I don't like to see in the mirror. Counting blessings might help, I guess.

That's a great way to look at it! I admit that my body has undergone so much change with menopause that it's hard for me to stay upbeat sometimes. I know it's just a natural part of life, though, almost a rite of passage for us women.
