Morning guys! Ready for some stretching and flexing? I'll have my pancakes with banana please ðĪŠððĨ I didn't share these pics before because they're one of the few I haven't edited myself, and I'm not totally comfortable with the edit the photographer did to the eyes. I tried to turn them back to "normal" but you still can tell there's something happening there. And I'm not a fan of that type of photoshop editing. My eyes have bags, somedays they will have more than others, depending on how rested I am or if I took care of them. Same with skin. I've also had very sensitive skin all my life so redness and whatever appeared with stress until I learnt (with the help of my dermatologist) to take care of it. That's one of the reasons sometimes I look older on my pics from 2014 than now, my skin was a mess back then. And my body is not always round and perfect. I'm a 54 year old guy ð and happy to be it, and one of my actual goals is to talk about ageism in our community. Getting old is natural, and beautiful, as are all ages in life. The gay community has a very unfair stigma put onto our old folks. Let's fight against that and embrace the experience and serenity our older peers can bring into our lives. I'm beyond grateful to my "gay dads", the guys older than me that shed a light into my path when I was a kid and starting my way in this. We need those guys, and I'm happy to be that guy for several of my younger friends this days. Be yourself, no matter the age. Happy Saturday ðâĪïļ
