Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five interconnected sites.
“What can be added to the happiness of a person who is in health, out of debt, and has a clear conscious?” — unknown
If ever there was a logical goal in life, perhaps this one should be near the top.
Simple.
Elusive.
Impossible?
First thing on the list today, inspired by the Third Day song I’m currently listening to:
It’s simply joyful to know that so many people visit each day. Your visits humble me, inspire me.
Second thing on the list: If a movie was made of your life, what song would be featured?
If it’s easier, what top two or three songs? Hard to pick just one.
Two quick things:
1. If you are not aware of the other four blogs associated with Mid Life Celebration, which is totally possible, feel free to visit my Internet headquarters at www.jeffnoel.com
2. If you have heard about the daily five-a-day blogging and have any interest or curiosity as to why, I’m currently wrapping up a three part series on this at www.jeffnoel.com
Hope you have a GREAT Monday and that this week is the best week of your entire life.
If it sounds crazy, that’s okay. May I challenge you to ask yourself, “What’s stopping me from having the best week of my entire life?”
“Laughter is the shortest distance between two people.” — Victor Borge
Hope you enjoyed the rare Mid Life Celebration blog post yesterday.
Rare? Yes. In fact, it was probably the first of it’s kind. A joke. And it brought joy to post it.
I have it in me. Really, I do. Every one has a sense of humor, even me, and laughter is good medicine.
Just yesterday, I was in the Atlanta airport heading to Dallas, and asked a couple with grown children, “Any advice on raising boys”?
With the husband still thinking of an answer, the wife instantaneously responded, “Have a sense of humor!”
What are the odds?
Are you a thankful midlife parent, or maybe thankful midlife grandparent? Gauran-dang-tee I am.
Most married couples think parenting is an entitlement. Cheryl and I can tell you first hand it doesn’t work that way for all couples.
So, being a mid life Dad makes me thankful beyond any mortal effort to describe it. Seriously.
But I’ll try. Here goes. This is simply a typical revelation, in the journey my son and I have each day. It’s something I’ve been sharing and teaching him with unwavering commitment.
“Once you learn to be honest, it is no longer something to fear. Once you don’t tell the truth, it becomes easier to do it again.”
Honesty builds trust. Trust reinforces honesty. And honesty becomes a habit. Simple, but not easy.
