Katie’s future is so bright, it reminds us of us

Katie’s future is so bright, it reminds us of us. She and her classmates have something most Baby Boomers will never have again – youth.

And a limitless (for now) hopeful optimism for endless possibilities.

The relentless attack of the real world, stronger and seemingly more brutal with each passing decade, hasn’t hit them yet as a homeowner, parent, and career obligated adult.

While we can wish that they’ll be immune from this, we know it ain’t gonna happen.

Here’s the real 9/11, and it’s happening to too many Americans

They know I love Disney, but do they know my end-of-life wishes?

 

Here’s a very real clone of 9/11, and it’s happening everyday, to too many Americans:

Excerpt from MyBestBuddyMedia site:

Most dying patients don’t want their family troubled with end-of-life responsibilities. Sadly, many never share their wishes. This gives critical decisions to doctors or family members who may not know their loved ones preferences. One example is the desire for most Americans to die at home. According to 2009 government data, only 24% of people age 65 and over actually do so.

Does my Family know? Do we have, if nothing else, a living will? And is it easy for someone we love to find?

Pausing for a midlife moment of silence

Cruising day-to-day on auto-pilot?

 

Pausing for a midlife moment of silence. I’m writing this post 102 days before September 11. You’re reading it now on 9/11.

There’s something extraordinarily calming, stimulating, liberating, and educational about not going with traditional herd-mentality mass market hype saturation which surrounds big-time anniversary dates.

Not a fan of that. Too limiting.

Why do we only celebrate our birthday once a year? Everyday sounds much more alive.

Pausing this morning, Friday May 31, and wondering where America is with their memory of where they were when the world stopped turning.

And wondering were are all the American flags that used to be on our vehicles, in our lawns, and on our lapels.
