RE: Memoir Monday #30 (9/30-10/6) - How do you plan to spend the next decade of your life?

I certainly hope to make the most out of these next few decades. I can see how life is beginning to change in my fifties, everything feels more immediate and priorities are shifting. I was so terrified to take that leap of faith while I was in the moment, Lizelle, but it was almost as though the universe just opened the door after so many years of working towards the goal. It truly felt like I was presented with a once-in-a-lifetime decision of "right or left" at a crossroads -- left to a life of freedom or right for a life of working an office job until I retired. I'll never forget that phase of my life, it was so exciting. It also taught me a lot of lessons, like how to deal with success. It brought its own set of challenges. I'll forever be grateful for it. I'm sure you have many, many healthy years left! Are you planning to make it back to see your son soon?
