Golden Oldies


Still on the subject of old age, here are portraits of “golden oldies” I took in Bali and Central Java. The lady in the main picture asked my guide/fixer with a giggle, “Why is he taking my picture? I’m so old not pretty anymore!” I said to my guide, “Please tell her that I think she’s very beautiful.” And I speak from my heart. These old folks have something that most of their younger counterparts do not have and that’s inner beauty.
