Description
Vintage Woman: A Memoir is one woman's odyssey into Elderhood not as the Third and Final Act, but as the most intuitive, aware, insightful, enlightened, well-informed stage of life’s experience.
She: • taps into the heart of Elders, especially women, and asks that women of all ages insist they be defined  by more than their physical beauty and ability to reproduce;
     • asks Elders to consciously shift from adulthood to elderhood and discover their unique power and purpose;
     • invites all Elders to live beyond the busy-ness of survival, social masks and self-interests;
     • calls on Elders to harvest life’s experiences and to treasure their inner beauty, light and hard won wisdom.
Large populations of Pro-agers (healthier, well-educated, financially secure and psychologically cultivated) are discovering that ultimate fulfillment and freedom come from going beyond personal dramas. While they appreciate the importance of valuing their unique purpose for being, Ms. Fogarty tells us, elders also understand that active listening, in no small measure, grants Being to others. For who we are and what we will continue to become, in part, lives in the compassionate acceptance, support and service to others. As an anonymous poet reminded, “We spin out of nothingness to create each other.â€
