A participant in one of my programs shared this story.
"I wanted to tell you a funny story about “eyebrow flash.” I have 3 girlfriends from grade school to current – we’re all in our 60’s. For the past few years, at various times in our get-togethers or get-aways, I’ve been known to comment, as we’re taking pictures, “Raise your eyebrows” convinced this makes us look younger. Well, the four of us went to my son’s college on a football weekend to visit him and have our girlfriend get-away. We (just us girls) asked one of his fraternity brothers to take our group picture. As he was aiming, I said “Raise your eyebrows!” to my girlfriends. This young man stopped, lowered the cell phone with a puzzled look at us, proceeded to raise his eyebrows and lifted the cell to take our picture! Needless to say, we were all doing a not-very-flattering laugh in the picture. This young man, of course, didn’t realize we were talking to ourselves and not to him. But bless his heart, he gave it the good old college try and complied!"
