Crones don't Whine....

"Crones don't whine. They're juicy and they trust their instincts. They don't grovel. They do meditate. They choose the path with heart. Crones are fierce about what matters most to them. They speak the truth with compassion. They listen to their bodies, reinvent themselves as needed and savor the good in their lives."
