Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five interconnected sites.
Balancing work, life, family, business, and vacation at the beach. It’s challenging. Difficult. Critical. Doomed to fail? It often feels overwhelming impossible. The Brooklyn trip was inspirational. Tiring.
And last night the London Olympics opening ceremonies were watched from a favorite beachfront locale. Hope to be out the door before the sun rises for a five-miler. Hope your day is amazing.

Insight: Keep moving forward, no matter the challenges.
One of the reasons Halloween is such a fun night for us is because it is the night we make fun of things that are frightening. We put a face on fear, much the same as we do when we see a horror movie or read a Stephen King novel. It’s controlled, contained and entertaining. We get much the same rush as when we ride a roller coaster or rides like The Tower of Terror.
As someone who’s battled an anxiety disorder since childhood, I have to admit I’m not a fan of the thrill rides. I do, however, enjoy a good movie like Silence of the Lambs and I am a huge fan of Mr. King’s works. I suppose it’s a way to control fear and anxiety.
Maybe we shouldn’t wait until October 31st to meet our fears head on, look them in the eye and laugh in their face.

And today’s it’s goodbye Brooklyn, hope to see you again real soon…
Boomers, a friendly reminder from 35k’ feet… live before you die. The 60-something widower next to me had planned to retire and travel the country with his wife. Ovarian cancer changed all that a year ago.

The Brooklyn Bridge… July 24, 2012… Arrived here yesterday for two full days of teaching. The Marriott is two blocks from the walkway entrance. As a Boomer, isn’t it cool to do things for the first time?
