Over 50, Starting Over

This resonates with me, and I think it must relate to most people in that we all find ourselves at some point(s) in our lives having to adjust to a new journey, either by choice or by circumstance. It’s not easy but we can make it less hard. I appreciate listening to Merle’s and Barry’s perspectives and personal stories as there’s always at least one “ah ha” moment. Yes, they speak of religion and God, but that shouldn’t discourage anyone from listening. It’s because they are speaking as their authentic selves. If that’s not really your thing, still listen for the message that serves you and skip what doesn’t. It’s like an abundant buffet!
