Hi Alexa!
Great post. I really enjoy reading about others who have "awakened" and realized they perhaps have been wearing masks for most of their lives. It's time to take them off! Thanks!

I eagerly hoisted my 40lb backpack up on one knee and then skillfully swung it around where it rested perfectly on my back. It was mid August in 1995 and I was preparing to finish my final day of a 2-month journey on the Colorado Trail. The Color…
Well, the "Easy fellow midlifers" did get my attention today. "I don't wanna think of myself as a midlifer, I don't wanna think of myself as a midlifer!" lol -

Oh wait...this is supposed to be an inspiring blog. Oh well! Today is another day closer to the end of my life but that doesn't mean I have to ponder my eventual doom, does it?

Bliss...

I…
Joe....
I have been EXACTLY where you are two years ago at the age of forty. I woke up one day and said, "What the hell am I doing here." LOL but it actually started when I was about 38. I just fought it for two more years.
You will enjoy it here.…
Joe.....
You are very right. When I went through my mid-life "crisis", I refused to call it that. I called it an "awakening"......and that is exactly what it was.
Have an amazing day!
I recently read a great post by fellow blogger LWesty. She made this comment:
"Why is it that when we finally start to feel like ourselves again that we have to classify this as a crisis?"
I love it! This is precisely why I started "My Midlife Ma…
