Mariana Ximenes is 45 and has no children. When asked about motherhood, she neither justified herself nor got defensive.
She replied with a calmness that made waves: “It’ll happen when it’s meant to. Let time tell. Time is wise. I’m at peace.”
For many, that serenity is an example of freedom: a woman who doesn’t live her life like a countdown and doesn’t owe anyone explanations for her choices.
For others, however, talking about “letting time decide” at that age ignores a biological reality that waits for no one.
Some applaud her for not letting herself be swept up in the pressure. Others believe that waiting too long is also a way of making a decision. What do you think: is it wisdom or letting time pass?
