I guess some of it is already on my page, and yeah, I should detail more. The unique thing about my career as a hearing specialist is I work every week with people who have aced Act 4 and lots more having a sad final act. So maybe detailing my observations both personal and professional is something worth detailing regularly.
Love this perspective. Just a couple of years behind you, but already starting to think like you're thinking. Much too soon, we won't be able to say, "There's always next year." -Ari
I must admit that turning 60 was a shocker for me as well. The first time I ever felt "old." But I got over it. Then, like Damocles' sword, health issues hung over my head and made me question how much longer I really had. We decided to make a change in our lifestyle and, hopefully, prolong our lives as much as we could. Today is 7 years later. I feel healthier, happier, and ready for adventure, wherever it leads me. For me, Acts 2 and 3 were really all about work more than anything. Grind, grind, grind. Now I write about what I see, do, feel, and experience here on Substack, paint (on Instagram SummerplaceArt), and just completed my debut novel, hopefully coming out this summer. It's being serialized before publication to get feedback on chapterbychapterfiction.substack.com. If I can do it, you can too! Here's to adventuring in the back nine!
Great story!!
Sorry to put my own perspective on it but we might be separated by half a world but gee a couple of similarities
I turn 60 later this month and we celebrate our 36th wedding anniversary this year 😉🤗
Thank you and congratulations on the anniversary!
This one resonates with me. At 67, I’ve been in Act 4 mode for about a decade. Looking forward to what lies ahead.
You should write about it so we can learn from your experience.

This strongly resonates. Our generation is pioneering this journey. We need to tell the story truthfully. We need to iterate, experiment, invent.
I can relate. I hit the big 60 next month. Happy birthday 🎂
Thank you!
