The Newest AARP Member

I’m hitting the big one next month. Five-oh. And yep I joined the AARP. About 10 years ago I got a mailing from them encouraging me to join, even though you’re supposed to be 50 to be a member. I called my Mom, trying to suggest what a joke it was 10 years early, and her only response was, “They have so many great things, you should do it!” Love ya Mom.
A few months ago I happened to be in Hong Kong and for whatever reason went through the whole aging thing in my head. But it all resolved well, which is not always how things go in my head! The bottom line: if you have good things to look forward to, that’s all that matters. Yes, there are lovely signs that one is no longer 25. But the more one experiences in life, the more tools you have to deal with what it throws you. And I’ve got quite the tool set indeed! But as they say, it’s all good. What matters? The people you love and the friends you make in both your personal and business life. Can’t wait to see what the next 50 years bring!
