"When I am an old woman, I
shall wear purple and a red hat which doesn't go and doesn't suit me....I shall
sit down on the pavement when I'm tired...press alarm bells...pick flowers in other people's gardens...learn to spit. And make
up for the sobriety of my youth." We embrace the thoughts and sentiments expressed
in this inspirational poem, "Warning" by Jenny Joseph, with "hattitude"!
The Baltimore Red Hat Hons became the first official Red Hat Society Chapter in
Maryland in February 2001. We are an eclectic group who celebrate our ethnic, racial, social and professional
diversity. We have shared the joy of discovering that we have, at last, reached
an age when what others think about us doesn't matter; we are no longer bound by
conformity. We are free to be ourselves!
Red Hat Hons:
Eat dessert first.
Aspire to laugh much and grow old
playfully.
Are proof that there is life after wrinkles.
Embrace the
freedom age brings.
Practice being audacious older women.
Are not for the
faint of heart.
Feel challenged to live the second half of life
outrageously.
