Madonna and Mike turn 60

Madonna and Mike turn 60.

Such a privilege to reach 60.

Old is always someone older than you.

Because of this phenomenon, at 60 i don’t feel old. High schoolers, however, have to look at 60 as ancient.

And so it goes.

How old do you feel?

Take care of yourself.

The long way is the shortcut.

Life humbles you so deeply as you age. You realize how much nonsense you’ve wasted time on.  – Vala Afshar

The older you get

Getting old is wonderful.

Feeling old is not.

Getting old is a privilege many never experience.

It also comes with a personal responsibility to keep learning, doing, and refining what we hold on to and what we let go of.

Memories are nice, but never let them be bigger than your dreams.

How do you start your Christmas morning?

Yesterday, December 24 at Harrisburg, PA airport.

 

How do you start your Christmas morning?

Mine started an hour ago at 5am in the house i grew up in.

We arrived from Orlando yesterday.

From 80 degrees to 40.

Weirdly, i miss the 17-year tradition of starting the day delivering food for needy Central Florida families.

Visiting aging relatives, on both sides of our Family, inspires me to think about my life should i live another 20-30 years.

And i can’t help but wonder if our Son will see us as an example or a warning.

Life is hard for everyone.
