To keep writing or stop, mind

Midlife Celebration — First blog posts are from 2008. Daily writing began April 1, 2009.

Keep writing?

Or stop?

How much more writing do i have to do, want to do, need to do?

Well, i…

Don’t have to write more.

Don’t need to write more.

But i do want to write more.

Short term (6-12 months more) says keep going.

Why?

To capture this major life transition to fixed-income, no more working lifestyle.

There’s juicy, important stuff i’ve never thought about.

That’s some of my favorite stuff to write about.

What i hope for today, mind

Happy Saturday, May 9, 2026.

Been blogging since October 2008. How can i still bog after 18 years? Seriously, how?

And.

And this is a big ‘and’…

‘And’ i’ve been writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts since April Fools Day 2009.

Now, five weeks into the beginning of the 18th consecutive year, the question is simple…

How much more writing do you have to do, want to do, need to do?

Don’t know.

What i wish for today, mind

This morning when i call Paul and Ree, i wish for Grace, surrender, and compassion.

How long will we talk?

Will i be a good friend?

How will i know the answer to both questions?

i asked Ree yesterday if it would be a good idea to talk privately before a call with her and Paul.

She didn’t think it was feasible because of Paul’s current state.

Actually, we we’re gonna talk yesterday morning and she said the day didn’t start out good could we do it today. Obviously, i said yes.

Is there a difference between our wishes and our actuals?

Disney's Hollywood Studios Streetmoshpere — Yesterday after lunch at Disney’s Hollywood Studios Prime Time Cafe.

Is there a difference between what we wish our life was like and what it’s actually like?

Assuming we answer either yes or no:

If yes, how did we accomplish it?
If no, why aren’t we accomplishing it?

In the same way society, in general, is uncomfortable talking about death, we are uncomfortable talking about excuses and regrets.

Anyone else find this fascinating?

Do you have a ready answer for this question today?

Nelson Mandella coin dated 2000 — In 2000, was given this coin as a gift from a group of South Africans

When we really desire something we figure it out. When it seems too difficult, we create an excuse.

And sometimes, we rebound after our excuses and figure it out anyway.

Wishing you a good path today.

What are you wishing for others?

The same, no?
