i dreamt of changing the age-old question

Four days ago, December 30, 2017. Annual end-of-year party at the Mitchell’s. None of them can comprehend my crazy dream. Today’s five posts are the catalyst for going public.

 

The Doctor said, “We estimate you have 15 months to live.”

Just a dream?

Sort of.

i dreamt of changing the age-old question, “What would you do if you had six months to live?”

Change it to what?

“What would you do if you had 10 years to live?”

So yeah, for 8.5 years, i’ve been living like my 60th birthday is my last day.

Now, i’m 15 months away from my last day.

PS. i’m fully aware no one knows the day of their death. This is exactly why this is an intriguing endeavor.

Overwhelmed in good and not so good ways

 

Overwhelmed in good and not so good ways.

Such is life.

Let’s make an assumption that we are not taking drugs (prescription or otherwise, and please remember alcohol is a drug, as is food, etc)

Does life have to constantly feel overwhelming?

No.

Do you know what the goal is?

It’s to minimize overwhelm, not eliminate it.

Is it impossible to eliminate overwhelm?

At 58, i haven’t lived long enough to discover what’s possible.

Do you think i’m trying to do the impossible?

Am i swayed by short-term comfort and do i ignore long-term implications?

To what degree does my choice of attitude fall prey to a lack of focus and discipline?

Can you honestly say it’s ok to continue on without changing?

What would happen if we took responsibility for our attitude today

First photo from a 10-mile run. What lies ahead is not clear.

 

What would happen if we took responsibility for our attitude today instead of waiting for the timing to be right?

Can i take the opportunity, today, to take the next negative temptation that i’m faced with and choose a positive outlook instead?
