One of life’s most overlooked opportunities suffocates us

Why do we let what we can’t do stop us from what we can do?

How do you thank someone for their overwhelmingly remarkable demonstration of community?

One of life’s most overlooked opportunities suffocates us. And it happens so slowly, we don’t even notice.

We fear failing or embarrassment, so we wait and do nothing. This poisons our soul.

What if we simply did what we could, even if it felt small?

Because haven’t we been taught since childhood that it’s the little things that count?

Yesterday was unexpected proof.

Please forgive the straightforwardness

Today is beautiful, even if we are broken – and we are all broken.

 

Here’s how high i’ve learned to aim…

Here’s the simple choice we all face, everyday, all day.

Focus on what makes us miserable or focus on what makes us happy.

Focus on what we don’t have = miserable.

Focus on what we do have = joy.

Aim so high it scares you.

No theory at Mid Life Celebration

Why can so few of us slow down enough to appreciate unusually rare art?

Called three people yesterday on the flight home from Detroit. The calls were the first of this type in 55 years.

The people were chosen for their dedication, support, encouragement, loyalty, hope.

People side by side with MLC from the beginning in April 2009.

Mid Life Celebration’s very first post was November 14, 2008.

Sure it’s challenging to read five daily, differently-themed blog posts for five-plus years.

Maybe they were contacted because they understand it’s exponentially more challenging to write them.

No theory here.

Only real life in real time.
