I feel like this is a very important post. I'm really tired of hearing people say things like "60 is the new 40" (usually spoken by a 40-year-old). Unless we suddenly become immortal, our bodies have finite limits. Things wear out. We should acknowledge and respect that.

My new limit is heels. I love beautiful shoes and used to wear heels every day. One day I woke up and my feet refused. As I prepare for a formal wedding as the MOB, I have [grudgingly] come to terms with wearing a very low heel for the ceremony, and switching to flats immediately after. Do I hate it? Yes. Have I accepted it? Not yet. Will I? Eventually.
I haven't worn heels since my early 30s because my feet refused! I can't honestly imagine it. The only benefit to being over 50 is no one else thinks I "should" anymore.

I ended up barefoot at both my son and daughter's weddings.
I gave up heels many years ago and never regretted it. Same with dresses and skirts. I only wear pants now. Much more comfortable.
