ome mornings I just don’t have it in me … the words, the thoughts, the column. That lead makes me chuckle, as often times more than not I say to myself, “Self, who out there really cares about your two cents on this life that we’re living?” Without fail on occasion I will cross someone who shares the value they see in my random chosen topic for the given issue. Often times they are fellow mommies, women close to me in age or someone seeking a healthier lifestyle in the 209. Rarely are they younger than me and that’s no surprise. Just as my mom used to share with me, I’m now coming to learn; the young have it all figured out. That also makes me chuckle. I sit here typing, no clue where this will lead, yet I can’t help but reflect and acknowledge that indeed my first half of this life is now behind me. Some might say I have less than that, but I’d beg to differ.
