(Photo: Cooper has been gone almost three weeks now. Last night’s walk was particularly retrospective.)
We go through our daily motions. Everyday.
Do we give our routine any conscious, deliberate thought?
To what degree?
How often?
These are the things that make us or break us.
And yet it’s a ridiculously simple concept…
Writing about three things. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
What we learned yesterday. What we get to do today. What we hope for tomorrow.

Will we claim our independence or will we conform?
Simple questions like this are easily ignored.
Why?
Because the list of excuses to avoid answering them is massive.
Because we must choose.
Either or.
We can easily put this off for an entire lifetime.

Why be happy in midlife?
Because, quite simply, it’s insanely good for our health.
And it teaches the younger folk following behind us that it’s a great life strategy.
And the path to happiness is paved with gratitude.
Be an example, not a warning.
Is there an echo in here?

In our exhaustion from the daily grind, an opportunity presents itself everyday. Except it’s probably invisible to most of us. Maybe the decently self-aware person doesn’t miss it. Who knows for sure?
If no one is immune from life’s demands, how do some seem to make the obvious first choice?
Survive or thrive.
Pick.
All are eligible to thrive.
All of us?
It would certainly seem so.
We should never judge others on their perceived luck or privilege. This would certainly start looking like an excuse. Denial. We don’t need any more of that in our life.
But it sure beats trying to do the challenging work of learning how to thrive despite the hell we all go through.
