Double dog daring every single reader at Mid Life Celebration to go to Lane 8 (MLC’s physical health blog). Why? Because…

Illness is the most heeded of doctors. To goodness and wisdom we make only promises; pain we obey. – Marcel Proust

Having a great midlife attitude is not enough. It isn’t and we know it.

The message at www.Lane8.org/blog is simple and the hope there is the same as here at MLC – that we will treat ourselves the way we deserve to be treated.

The truth about this voice in our head

Magic Kingdom Halloween scarecrow
Shut up, say it ain’t so. That’s a scary thought, eh?

 

The voice in our head says, “This will change people’s lives”.

Agreed.

But.

But many don’t want to change.

They say they do.

But.

So why do we keep trying?

Never let your memories be bigger than your dreams

Dear Readers, the only acceptable way to live our life is to do the best we can. Until the day we die.

Never let your memories be bigger than your dreams.

We know this and it means something different, and special, to each person.

Live like you mean it becomes a daily habit when we practice it everyday.

There’s always a catch isn’t there? The daily part throws people.

Katie’s future is so bright, it reminds us of us. She and her classmates have something most Baby Boomers will never have again – youth.

And a limitless (for now) hopeful optimism for endless possibilities.

The relentless attack of the real world, stronger and seemingly more brutal with each passing decade, hasn’t hit them yet as a homeowner, parent, and career obligated adult.

While we can wish that they’ll be immune from this, we know it ain’t gonna happen.
