The Class Reunion
I’m getting ready to head back to my hometown in NY to attend my 50th high school class reunion. How. Is. That. Even. Possible? I truly don’t feel like it’s been 50 years since the days of earth science, English literature, or world history. But the calendar says it’s true. And so do my arthritic…
Am I Getting Older or Wiser?
I just turned 68. Lately I’ve noticed little things that reveal I’m getting older. Some of them include: And so, it begins.

Whispers of Influence: Illuminating the Hidden Dynamics in Marriage
What we are really talking about is what is influencing our marriage.

My Bakers Dozen
Contemplating the year ahead has given thought to the advantages and blessings of being the age I am. I say advantages because I choose to look at the positive side of life!

You Are Never Too Old to Take a Joy Ride!
As 2023 ends, what I simply want to convey to this “Living Your Best Life” Sixty Plus audience, is that I am going to continue to look for, abide in, cling to, bring as much as possible to others, but mainly, choose JOY in all circumstances as I am barreling through my sixth decade—and, I pray, for several more beyond.
Blessed to be Content
At its core, this is really what the Best-Life Project is about. Realizing what you want and being happy with it. When we know what we want our future to be, it helps us make decisions today that move us toward that end goal. Ten years from now, even two years from now, my vision for my future may change. I may be tired of dealing with workers and customers. I may want to travel more. But for today, I’m good.
