I just read the latest issue of Vanity Fair. It has a feature article on Joan Didion and Vanessa Redgrave - two women who look their age and have lived their age and who have teamed up to do a play based on Didion's tragic memoir (The Year of Magical Thinking). Their play seeks to see the tragedies through the prism of humor. It just struck me that both of these women are women who have lived lives of tragedy and have found strength; they move to the beat of their own drummer, controversial as they may be. To me, they are sages because they stand up for what they believe in.
