Aging and Mid Life Crisis
Marge Pickering-Picone
Isn't it time to put into action all the things you dream about? Have you not spent the first 20 years of your life being trained and conditioned as someone's child or student? Following all the instructions and rules set forth before you. Remember those that ended up rebellious always paying the task masters for that small taste of self expression?
Along comes the next 20 years where we believe that we are putting into reality our own ideas and life desires. We become someone's mate, parent, employee and still keep our place that society has molded for us. We seem to be performing that wonderful balancing act of keeping everyone in our lives happy with our choices. Time is passing and something inside tells us that we aren't fulfilled where we are in life. That all these choices have been for everyone else in our lives and not for us. There must be something more out there! Will someone think you're selfish? It sits in the back of our mind and starts showing up in our dreams. We try to ignore it and yet we become dissatisfied with the choices we made. Yet, we have no idea what we would do instead!
Along comes our forties and with it a new found confidence. The ability to assert ourselves comes to the surface. It's not always a pretty site and can be somewhat frightening at first but hang in there because maturity blossoms. They call it a "Mid Life Crisis" but I like to think of it as a time frame to create and express who you really are. The truth and nothing but the truth will free up your mind, heart and soul. You're no longer looking for approval. You want real friends, loving partners and people in your life to know that you're living life and not just existing. Don't just become Aging Baby Boomers.
How do you do this? How do you explore yet meet all the realistic goals of this aging process? Many of us have no one to ask or to even bounce ideas off of. The generation gaps are to large and the concepts of what is necessary for a solid future definitely do not match. We have to learn to share and outsource our ideas and information. Taking stock of where we are and the directions we want to take can get that excitement back in our lives. Set those goals for yourself and share goals with those you love and share lives with. Skip over the depression stage and take those thoughts and dreams and find someone to help you turn them into reality. There are life coaches, financial advisors, therapists, friends and loved ones who will be able to help guide you and encourage you on your journey. Have the desire to enjoy everyday of your life.
