What's It All About?

That's my question for now and for the days to come.  Yes, I am facing 50 years old and I want to know what's it all about. I recall facing 30 and 40. Those decades meant something different to me than facing 50.  When I turned 30, it finally dawned on me that I was an adult. My son and daughter were still young and I was working my first "real" job. When I turned 40, a new bundle of joy entered our lives midway through that decade, and I was still working at that same "real" job.  Something else began to happen.  I believe that my life really began in  my 40's.  All sorts of epiphanies hit me and I also learned my purpose in life.

Now, today, at 49, I truly feel really grownup and I appreciate every single day of my life.  I've learned so much and I am looking forward to turning 50 on October 21, 2011.  In the meantime (hmmm, sounds like a good title to write about), I am going to document my life here. I'm going to throw caution to the wind and simply be honest.  I will share my thoughts, feelings, and perspective from my almost 50 standpoint.

I welcome your input. Actually, I truly desire your advice, sharing of your own experiences, etc. I don't want to take this journey alone.

Blessings,
Carla
