I used to think in terms of accomplishing something remarkable but now I’m content if the mark I leave behind is that of simply being a kind and loving person. Having worked for so many years I’m enjoying a more leisurely life (though it’s not without some worries that my money will run out). I’ve actually become quite domestic and something as simple as cooking a good meal for “B” when he gets home gives me great satisfaction. I would like to be remembered as being a good mother, a loving wife, and a thoughtful, caring woman. For me, that would be an honourable legacy. And maybe life is just that simple.

Take a few risks travel a bit or write the novel in you
You are so brilliant at research you could write a "how to" book in no time. How to decorate to please yourself and to hell with what other people think. There you go. You all ready started it here on blogit.

I think you should travel the world and experience different cultures. Then, you may see that the American way is not the best. Recent bailouts etc should have wizened people to the ongoing scam. We owe 65.5 trillion dollars. My share is about 1/2 a million dollars! I never made this much in my whole life!

birthdays are just nice reminders of our chronological age, but that doesn't mean we are really that old mentally

My hope is to take all the pain and negative experiences I have had in my life and use them to help others. My writing not only entertains people but informs them as well. For some it just provides them with the knowledge that they are not alone.

Thanks for a really good post Lustorlove! You have raised a really vital issue. Like most people my life has not always been problem-free: divorce, health problems and professional frustrations. However some how or other I've always managed to get up again and fight on. Since my retirement I've found a great deal of satisfaction with my various interests. My grandchildren are a great source of joy, and I'm very happy that my daughter seems to have found a better recipe for happiness and fulfillment. I find writing very therapeutic, and it is always a comfort to know that I'm not the only person in this world with a somewhat scarred soul.

I feel like that a lot. Especially when my birthday comes each year and
on New Years Eve. I always think where have all the years gone, and what have I done to reach my goals....it gets depressing, but there's a lot of years ( hopefully ) left. I mainly want serenity, peace of mind. Of course, financial stability would be nice, also. I feel I have accomplished the greatest goal of all, with the abundance of love I have in my life.
