The midlife peace that’s possible is actually quite staggering

Things have become so much clearer in the past 15 years

 

The midlife peace that’s possible is actually quite staggering. Literally embarrassed to talk about it. But writing helps.

If you regularly write, you know this.

If you’ve overcome addiction, you know this.

If you honor your body and take care of it well, you know this.

If you’ve become more concerned with your work as art versus status, you know this.

If you’ve come to gripes with your mortality in an inspiring way, enabling you to live each day with conscious purpose, you know this.

If you know that it truly is in the giving that we receive, you know this.

Day six in Hilo, Hawaii and maybe this will happen

Aloha sigh
Aloha

 

Day six in Hilo, Hawaii and maybe this will happen… maybe I’ll adjust to the new routine:

1. No Internet signal in room
2. Six hour time difference
3. Allure of Hawai’i, reality of long work days
4. So much to do, so little time
5. Writing last thing of the day versus first thing

Will I get to write from hotel lobby at 4:15am ?… and maybe a run as the sun rises at 5:53am?…

Only time will tell.

I know my answer, but what is really intriguing while writing this, what is everyone else’s?

The one true disability Baby Boomers are susceptible to?

The only true disability is a crushed spirit. – Aimee Mullins

Time after time, we are shown examples of people who have overcome adversity that would crush a normal person’s spirit.

These reminders are placed before us for a reason. Will provide another example tomorrow…

Fully expecting today to be transformational.

A class.

Great content.

Transformationally packed like I’ve never seen before.

My transformation is having better ammunition to influence transformation in others:

Going to tell my students tonight, “I envision when the class ends you’ll say, I’m exhausted, and… and I will never be the same again”.
