Do I or don’t I? This is the precipice upon which I teeter; deciding whether to let nature take its course or begin the kind of subtle aesthetic treatments that will tighten, lift and smooth my face.

There is a space between doing nothing and doing something, of course, but as I vacillate between whether to bite the bullet and go for it or step away from the hypodermic needle, it does feel as though I am at a crossroads and that once a path is chosen, there is no going back.
