Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five interconnected sites.
Glad, elated, thankful
What all of us want out of life is to live it uninhibited. To be set free from our fear is the ultimate achievement.
What prompts us recognize a milestone? What milestones are worthy of celebratory significance? How do we avoid sounding boastful?
Some things, like births and deaths, are major milestones we mark by recalling them each year. Some with celebration. Some with sorrow.
Today is a bit of both.
My Dad, Jack Noel, left his earthly life April 10, 2001.
He and our son never met. A summer trip home had been planned for June, but it was too late.
I learned a lot from my Dad, by what he did and didn’t do, but not from what he said. We didn’t talk much. Conversation between us was challenging.
Come to find out, I have so much to say that today marks the 2,000th blog post at Mid Life Celebration, LLC.
Five daily blogs. One midlife passion prescription.
Hey Dad, how’s Carter doing up there? 🙂 Miss you both.
Email. A midlife prescription for passion?
Can’t live with it. Can’t live without it.
A necessary evil.
Our lifeline to the world.
Overwhelming in-box?
Spam. Potential virus-carrying attachments.
Long-lost friends reconnected. Joy.
What gives us passion in midlife?
We can be fairly confident it ain’t email.
Got a Tweet the other day, plus an email.
Okay, not earth-shattering news.
But.
But they were from the same person.
So.
So he had a question he wanted to ask me.
(Again) So.
He wants to meet with me to ask it.
Not sure why a retweet or direct message, or even an email response wouldn’t satisfy his curiosity.
Anyway, we hope to meet later next week, so I can answer this, “What inspires you to write five daily blogs?”

Ever heard these phrases?:
On a friend’s suggestion, I’ve simplified navigation between the five daily blogs.
It’s basic, it’s common sense, and just one more simple improvement.
It reminds me of mid life.
