Baby Boomer DREAMS

Everything Starts With A Dream
Everything Starts With A Dream

Baby Boomers in particular, along with Generation X-ers, have an extraordinary opportunity to shape the future.

Do you have any idea what your responsibility is?

What makes these two diverse groups so unique is their combination of skills and attitudes:

  • Old enough to be wise
  • Young enough to be energized
  • Smart enough to be concerned
  • Thoughtful enough to care
  • Dedicated enough to be the change

Mid Life Celebration is dedicated to making the world a better place, by challenging the top 3% of male Baby Boomers to do something GREAT before they die.

And the indomitable will of any person, any age, any generation, to also help make the world a better place for future generations.

I’m A Little Drunk

Quit The Same Year
Quit The Same Year

Uninhibited.

Lady Antebellum.

One of their songs goes, “It’s a quarter after one, I’m a little drunk and I need you now….”

We drink for many reasons. I drank for nearly three decades.

To fit in.

To escape.

And got pretty good at it.

Lady Antebellum’s song (over 13 million views) is a hit.

Beer commercials are some of the most prolific.

Maybe, we just want to live uninhibited.

It’s possible, without the buzz from a can or bottle.

It Was Weird

Ever have days where weird things happen?  Of course, right?  What I’m really asking is, “What do you do with your weird events? Do you dismiss them, or look for some meaning in them?”

Couple weird things yesterday:

  1. Moved Sunday’s Guest Blogger (Lorie Sheffer) post to Lane 8
  2. Ran my first 5k as a 50-year old.

Lorie Sheffer has been a regular Guest Blogger here at Mid Life Celebration for some time. It feels weird not seeing her here today. She has a great post at the next blog.

And it was really weird to receive a plaque reading, “Male Masters Overall Winner”, at yesterday’s Run Among The Lakes 5k. Wasn’t even a goal.

Are you pushing yourself?

What Is A Mid Life Crisis?

What is a mid life crisis?

One thing for sure, it isn’t a mid life celebration.

Just look at the difference in the two words:

  1. Mid Life Crisis
  2. Mid Life Celebration

I mean seriously, if you could only pick one, which would you pick?
