Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five interconnected sites.
Thursday was our Son’s 10th birthday.
Normally, Cheryl organizes all the presents.
Being on vacation this week with the new puppy, I had time to put some thought into his gift bag, and he received a balanced set of presents.
Call it crazy, or brilliant, or weird, it doesn’t matter.
You know what matters?
No seriously, do you know what matters?
Because in the end, it comes down to what we do before we die.
(Body Blog)
How do you write five daily blogs? A common question from people I meet.
Hmmmm.
It’s sort of like running.
I don’t know why I do it, all I know is that i enjoy it and cannot help myself.
Drive. Hope. Faith. Purpose. Mission. Balance.
If you can’t find a role model, become one.

Midlife crisis resulted, in part, because adults are living longer and therefore have to work harder on the upkeep of their most valuable asset.
Their life.
The mind must stay sharp. The body must stay active. The spirit must be nurtured. The job needs to be stable. The inbox remains unrelenting.
All these things are a fact of life and because midlife crisis is a relatively new issue (only since 1965), society hasn’t adequately addressed how to have a well balanced approach to aging.
Without balanced personal wellness, as people often call it, the aging process accelerates at a faster rate, which begs today’s question.
What makes you feel young?

Busy as a Beaver!
It’s an American expression used to describe how busy you are when asked, “How are you doing?”
I’ll be back here at Mid Life Celebration, hopefully later today.
So much to share, so little time.
Ever feel like that?
Everyone has these moments. Only the frequency varies. You know the kind – were your day begins like every other, except you just feel off-center, or weird – and you can’t put your finger on “why?”. That said, it rarely happens in my “world”. But it’s happening now.
Sitting here in this North Carolina Hampton Inn, at 5:30 AM, with several hours of work to do before catching a shuttle to the Charlotte airport.
It’s a weird morning.
Five days ago, I was in our son’s classroom at 9:00AM for “Teach Your Parent” day. Our son taught us several lessons from the Montessori curriculum. Then off to the Orlando airport.
Two flights and many hours later, I was on the 16th floor of the Toronto Intercontinental Hotel, connected to the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, and one block from the world’s tallest free-standing concrete structure.
A few days and a few speeches later, I’m in this North Carolina Hampton Inn. The days and the speeches go by. Each one, a tremendous opportunity to do great work. The days are long, and rewarding.
In the middle of this, our son has an overnight school camping trip at a Florida State Park.
You would think that writing five different, daily blogs would exhaust blog topics. Quite the opposite. I find myself with so much to say.
It’s a weird morning.
