Where are we now?

I have long used the two points on a piece of paper to bring a concrete timeline to your life on this earth. Put two points on a piece of paper, connect them with a line....one is the beginning of your life and one is the end....now mark where you are on that line. It does't matter exactly where you put it, but it brings a very serious reality check!

Now, another exercise is to try and identify a few of the high points of your life and a few of the low. Usually, your life can be somewhat defined by a few of these highs and lows.

I would have to say starting our business was a high since it has provided us with many learning opportunities. Life at the cottage on the lake. Travelling with Vaughn, European trips and the Great Loop trip by boat.

Maybe I'm in denial but I don't dwell on the lows. Certainly there have been conflicts and concerns but I feel like I've been fortunate or at least I think I have. There are certainly many who are much less fortunate than I have been.

Deaths are certainly lows. Births are highs...particularly grandchildren when you can usually have the time and resources to appreciate them.....tiempo para guzarlos.
