Pauline Phillips aka 'Dear Abby' has past away.  She was known as America's favorite advice columnist for hundreds of newspapers, which reached over 100 million readers.  At almost 40 years old, she began her career in journalism.  Phillips was born a twin, but her twin sister, Esther "Eppie" Pauline Friedman Lederer died in back in 2002 at 83 years old, according to CNN.com.

The fact that Pauline Phillips began her career at almost 40 years old is very encouraging for those of you whom have given up on life.   A lot of times, many people fail because of 'ageism' which is very similar to racism.   However, age is nothing but a number and if you will look at how Pauline wanted to do something and never gave up, then you will begin to think different about yourself.   Tip: Ignore people whom refuse to hire you because of your age and just create your own business.  What is it you want to do in life, if you are over 35 years old?

According to Huffington Post, Pauline Phillips started her career as a columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle in 1956.  Years later, her daughter Jeanne began sharing her work and now she will take over since her Mom has passed away.   'Dear Abby' had been suffering with Alzheimer's for several years.  She lived to be 94 years old.  May she rest in peace.
