And the ones who are very body calm, who like to show the entire body. Then you deal with the fabric. Fabrication is so important.

No, I don't think that's stupid. I don't think I have a white blouse, actually. Do you want me to get you a white blouse? No, not particularly. Okay. You know, but I could tell you, I would say everybody needs a black turtleneck. Ah, this is good to know.

Okay, first of all, the word aging, I would change the word aging and say living, right? Oh, thank you. That's perfect. Perfect. Age is life. Yes. So instead of saying, how old are you? People should say, how long have you lived? Oh, my God.

And automatically it changes everything, even to a child. Yes. How long have you lived, little boy? I have lived 11 years. Wow. That's impressive. Yeah.

So for me, aging is the proof of living. Mm-hmm. And also, if you have, if you manage to be my age, well, it's already, I mean, I thought I was going to die before I was 30. Why? Why? Because I had done so much in my 20s that I didn't think that it was possible to continue like that. I see. And so I thought that all these things, I had two children by the time I was 24.
