Some people try to fight the signs of aging and do all sorts of things to combat their wrinkles.
But Doris, a.k.a. Sassy Gran, doesn’t see growing old as a bad thing.
The 94-year-old sees her wrinkles as a symbol of the life she lived and all that she’s thrived and survived through.
“I earned every one of these wrinkles I got! and I’m going to keep them and I’m not going to have my face lifted.”
Doris’ grandson Giovanni sat down with his Gran and asked her some questions about aging.
You see, Gran doesn’t age the same way most others do.
Most people long to return to their days of youth and eat healthy in order to keep the signs of old age at bay.

Not Gran, she eats hot dogs and avoids vegetables (unless they’re in a can), has one cigarette a day, and looks glamorous AF.
Her grandson asked what age she would want to be if she could go back in time. She said 30 to 35 but, to be honest, she’s glad to be an older woman.
“Yeah, but I don’t want to be young anymore. I like being old. I can do what I want, I can say what I want, and I don’t have to like whoever I don’t like, and if love somebody, hey, I can love them,” she explains. “You cant do that when you’re young.”
When you look at this 94-year-old, you don’t think “old lady.”
That’s because she beams with vitality.
She has incredible style, gorgeous long hair, full makeup, and she even rocks fake eyelashes. Though she is no longer able to do certain things she did in her youth, like bike and roller skate, she doesn’t mind.
Be Happy

“It’s not important because I’m old now and like being old,” Gran says.
She does wish that more people enjoyed the process of growing old like did. Besides, Gran says, fighting it is futile.
It’s going to happen whether you fight it or not, according to Doris.
But you can choose how to age.
“You got old in a really healthy and glamourous way,” Giovanni told her.

“I am very healthy,” Gran confirmed
But Giovanni told her how perplexing this was sine she’s so beautiful looking at 94-year-old even though she eats processed meat, canned vegetables, and has a smoke a day.
“One cigarette too many but who am I to say because it’s working for you,” he explained. “You’re healthier than me.”
Gran didn’t really have an explanation for this.
“I can’t help it. I’m just that way and I’m going to stay happy with my age,” she tells him. And you’re going to age just like me, if that’s what you want. I’m going to be happy and active.”
Giovanni agreed with that, except for one thing.
“I won’t be wearing those false eyelashes,” he told Gran.
They had a really good chuckle about that. Check out their conversation in the video below.
