We are all searching. Even those denying it.

To admit we are still searching is not inherently bad.

Why then do some deny the midlife searching?

Great question, and the answer is revealing.

Searching isn’t bad if you know what you’re looking for.

The embarrassment and guilt that could cause denial is from not knowing what to search for.

How can we reach midlife and not know why we are on this planet?

Always looking for signs of happiness in midlife?

Probably.

Why?

Because most of us are struggling to keep up with the Jones.

Not the ‘Jones’ house, yard, or car, but with the ‘Jones’ apparent happiness.

Social media can become a big smoke screen for what lies underneath.

Average is only bad if we assign it that value.

But what if average was actually bliss?

And what if it’s not?

What if we are capable of so much more but are afraid to go for it?
