Find out who you are and do it on purpose... Dolly Parton

I found this quote in a scrapbooking magazine
which really resonated with me.

1. I admire and enjoy Dolly Parton's work
and who she is. I hope she has been a
mentor to many who have not yet found the
secret to life... She has certainly inspired me with her own brand of individuality, style and grace.

2. Personal integrity - being accepted for who you are and doing it with attitude. The assurance of this little pearl of wisdom gives me confidence and sets boundaries to others.

Recently I joined the Red Hatters Society - a society of high spirited and fun loving ladies approaching 50 and beyond who get together to celebrate life, are not afraid of ageing and have good unadulterated fun. I love their philosophy... I can imagine Dolly Parton in a sumptious or sassy red hat and an outrageous purple outfit - The 'code of dress' for Red Hatters. No more is asked of you than that.

The 'been there, done that' attitude is not for the Red Hatters as you will find on the Aussie Red Hatters society website www.matildarose2.com New Year address. We are a fun loving group of ladies who have spent a lifetime looking after others whether it be family, committees or community. Now it is time to play and enjoy the companionship of wonderful sisters.

So what's stopping you? http://www.redhatsociety.com/ will get you started anywhere in the world, or google Red Hat society. This is an established group of women approaching 50, who could teach you to have fun. You will soon get the confidence to wear a red hat anywhere, at any time with the sisterhood.
