Every month this year I will update my list of "Living Life" during my 50th year. I started to work on the invitations for my "big party" today and ordered personal stamps for the envelopes - yes, I'll use my self portrait.
*************************************************************************
I will be 50 this year, in a couple of months. And I've got my first pair of glasses.
Turning 50 - is it a new beginning, a totally turn around or is it just a keep going?
I am looking forward to being 50. I find myself looking at older women, thinking - they are filled with lived life, the lines in their faces and on their necks comes from having loved through decades. Sorrows and happiness, it is all about living the life you are given. Age is beauty.
Turning 50 means "keep going", and again I pray with St. Birgitta "God show me the way and give me the willingness I need to walk it."
Turning 50! Keep going also means that I will continue giving myself challenges!In my diary I make a list.....
************************************************************************
- travel to India (I bought the tickets yesterday. YES!)
- plant roses
- read a book in a foreign language
- say hello to a stranger ( a stranger is a friend you don't know yet)
- climb a mountain
- love
The list will grow throughout the year.............................
