Me @ Mid Life, No Crisis Here

Leave a comment

Being yourself in your mid-forties can be an adventure. Some folks my age are having a mid-life crisis but I don’t think I am. Knowing who you are and being yourself I think can help you navigate life better. Some of us in our forties are still finding out what life is about and welcoming the changes. I think fear, like anything can drive people to do things that are not healthy or wise.

One word of advice for folks my age I have is to learn new things, do things differently every once and awhile and have fun. Get to know younger people who can help you stay current on what’s up in the here and now. Building bridges generationally can be fun. Have fun though being the age you are. Of course taking care of yourself is helpful too. Mid-life is different for everyone but I hope it comes later for you because you plan to live a long time.

Our favorite TV shows are going through their Fall/Winter finales. However I won’t be following along with my blog here. Nope, I will not be taking a break from my blog during the holidays. My friends I will be right here sharing what’s on my heart and in my head. Read at your own risk. I would appreciate a boost in the ratings though.

Snoopy, The Writer

Leave a comment

When you talk about great writers you have to put Snoopy into the mix. His stories of action and adventure are well chronicled on the comic strip as well as TV specials. His stories of tangling with The Red Baron in World War I are that of legend. It’s cool when you see him up on his dog house with his blue manual typewriter clicking away at some important work. I feel he would make an awesome blogger too. Snoopy has a lot to write about and perhaps we can take a page from his book.

A Ramble About Politically Correct

11 Comments

I don’t have a problem with politically correct speech or behavior. For too long people had been given license to demean others. At some point it became a socially unacceptable to say what was in your mind without being challenged on it. I think we need to be sensitive and polite to everyone and to accept things have changed. So being politically correct is more about making people think about how they relate with others and how people are treated.
