WEDNESDAY WOMAN: BETTY WHITE

For my table of eight, Betty White would certainly be on the guest list! I simply love that woman! She has the longest tv career of any celebrity, spanning more than 80 years, yet to listen to her now, she is so humble, modernistic in her views, and a lot of fun! Betty is probably best known for her parts as Sue Ann Nivens on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, Rose on The Golden Girls, and Elka in Hot in Cleveland.

I admire the way she still jumps into life and at 97 wants to still keep working and contribute to life. She is a typical hardworking Capricorn in that regard! You can tell she is a Capricorn by her down-to-earth no-nonsense attitude to life! I love her quick wit and saucy sense of humour! And her gratitude for every kindness extended to her in life. Her words of advice on growing old gracefully are ones I have taken very much to heart. At 97 she sure is a WOW WOMAN!!

“There’s no formula. Keep busy with your work and your life. You can’t become a professional mourner. It doesn’t help you or others. Replay the good times. Be grateful for the years you had.”

She doesn’t just say the above words, she truly lives her life by them. Such a positive, kind-hearted, and lovely human being. Her lifelong dedication to animals is legendary and she has done so much to improve the lives of animals. She has used her platform to further their cause and says you can tell a lot about somebody by the way they put their hands on an animal! My sentiments precisely! Betty White is indeed one of my role models as I continue my own adventures in life.

She is a perfect example of one who has grown old with grace, gratitude, and class, which is why she is my Wednesday Wow Woman today!!

Hugs,
