I was once young and pretty. I used to be skinny, wear short skirts, and turn heads. I checked my look frequently.
So, I love this quote. It reminds of how I was not so long ago.
It comes from one of my favorite (if not the favorite) books written by Josephine Humphreys: The Fireman’s Fair.

Oh the good old days :)) —- With age our eye sight like our looks fade so we can’t abscess about what we can not clearly see. Maybe its God’s reminder to us to concentrate on what is important and be grateful for a healthy life . thanks!
