Be Who You Are.
Do you know who that is?
A lot of us get to a point in our lives where we are not sure who we are or who we were meant to be. This is not something to take lightly. If we are at retirement or close to it then we don’t necessarily have all the time in the world.
The fact is, at no time do we know that we have all the time in the world. When we are young or younger, it seems there is no end. We feel getting to forty will take forever. And then we have passed forty.
It is said that the days go by quicker as we age. Reality says we have the same 24 hours in a day as we always did. Perhaps we just want to slow the time down as we become more aware of the time passing.
When we are young, we are so busy that cram whatever we need and want to do into that 24 hours. As we age, we no longer have so many needs and somehow our wants have slowed down. Perhaps this is because we have been accustomed to being told that it is no longer seemly to be off doing whatever we want.
We need to be more sedate and not the life of the party we’re told. Have you ever been to a party with a group of women in their 60s to their 70s? Just try and keep up! At this point, most of us Just Don’t Care! So the laughter and fun carry on.
