“Call me crazy, but I’ve never really understood our culture’s fear of getting older. The way I see it, every year can be a brand new journey,” Oprah says in the magazine.

“Think about it: You get one chance to be 25…38…44…61…and every age before and between. Why wouldn’t you want to experience all the wonder in each step on your path?”

On the cover of the new issue it says that Winfrey has a plan for a “longer, stronger, brighter, lighter, much more together life”.

Just yesterday, the media veteran’s audition tape from 1983 surfaced, showing that Winfrey was just like any other person trying to make it in the television world.
