Enjoy Your Wrinkles

When teaching young elementary aged children (and supplying them with small magnifying glasses), some of my students examined my hand. One little girl was closely studying my face and remarked, "You have wrinkles!" Smiling at the group of surprised faces, I remarked, "Yes, those are sminkles that I have from smiling!"

 

Discovering these pressed pansies that had been forgotten in a closet, I wanted to study their captured beauty. Seeing the image again, I was reminded that folds on our skin are no big deal. They are pretty on a pansy, too.
