| When you have the time, cycling is a great stress reducer. |
We’re all getting older, and with age comes some unpleasant things, like aches, pains, and loss. But we also have things we enjoy now that we didn’t have when we were younger. Material things are perhaps the obvious example, but the things that truly fulfill us are more important.
Speaking for myself, I am more selfless and compassionate. I’m no longer in the corporate arena, and I like that. No, I love that! I have more time to reflect, write, ride (I’m a cyclist), and pull weeds (I like to grow things). I do take on the occasional commercial project to keep my thinking sharp, and I enjoy the challenge.
What have you discovered as you’ve gotten older? What has become the shiny new object, the ultimate keeper of your happiness and contentment? Could it be a new career or business? Grandchildren? A renewed relationship? Life experiences? Self-confidence?
