Week of June 9, 2025
The gratitude prompt this week – A new experience I tried this week. Each new experience I explore adds depth and richness to my life. Every man can transform the world from one of monotony and drabness to one of excitement and adventure. Irving Wallace
Instead of journaling on new experiences I tried this week, my thoughts and journaling moved toward ideas and feelings about retiring early and what new adventures might be available with a monumental life change. Until recently, I was on a standard trajectory to retirement at age 65 but life has thrown me a forever-change curveball and now I am realizing that I don’t have to follow the well worn path of working a regular nine to five all the way until Medicare kicks in. I am going to take more time to explore how to become the person I want to be – ultimately this will lead to new experiences.
