Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five interconnected sites.
Simplicity is an elusive goal sometimes.
Ok, simplicity is elusive most of the time.
But so are a lot of things that are important. Should that stop us from our pursuit?
There is only one, resounding answer to this question.
And maybe by tomorrow I’ll have my movie soundtrack song(s) to share with the world. This was a fun, and frustrating, exercise.
And anything but simple.
Should have seen it coming.
What song did you pick?
Two days ago, I asked, “If your life were made into a movie, what would be the featured song?”
Okay, so I have a confession. This question is too difficult to answer without considerable thought.
I mean, it will be the song featured on your movie’s soundtrack, right?
My other challenge? I’m sort of a music connoisseur and have way too much to choose from. Most of us are like that – the love of music.
Think about it and I’ll see you tomorrow.
Are you getting this? Mid Life Crisis versus Mid Life Celebration.
These are simply mid life words, but the difference between the two sets of words is as profound as the difference here:
Have I told you lately how much joy it brings to know there are others out there who benefit as much from Mid Life Celebration as I do?
Three days away from New Year’s Eve. Got big plans for 2010?
“Let us endeavor so to live that when we come to die even the undertaker will be sorry.” — Unknown
That would be a life full of Joy, don’t you think?
Have a joy – filled day. Carpe diem.
It is a mid life goal to learn how to live simply, so that others may simply live.
This is one of the toughest life lessons to reverse. Everything we see or hear in the media, tells us more is better.
I’m teaching our son that less is more, not more is better.
Assets become liabilities. Seriously.
You get a nice car and then you worry about it being damaged or stolen. We live where most people drive upscale vehicles.
I drive a 20-year old car and love that it starts every time the key turns. Over a year ago, it was damaged when I was a victim of road rage. I’m thankful to be alive.
Never fixed that front fender, a daily reminder of what’s important.
The joy of doing without is something I need help on everyday anyway.
