Three steps to midlife peace and contentment
Three steps to midlife peace and contentment:
- work harder than ever to re-think things (could take years)
- put simple processes in place to recalibrate our shifting priorities
- begin to live more fully aware of each day, and the many mundane moments in it

It may have happened for the very last time yesterday.
The choice is to be sad, or rejoice in that final opportunity – to be conscious of it…
And eternally grateful for it… and the countless others that had come before.

Final look and maybe the last ever?

Bottom, the final Space Needle photo – a reflection off the EMP Museum.
Love being mindful that each time we do something – special or ordinary – it might be our last chance.
Ever.
Have found, through repetition (aka practice) that thinking this way as a habit doesn’t require extra effort once it becomes a habit.
Weird.
True.
