We’re so proud of you! You’ve made it this far. Your suitcases are packed with a bit of knowledge, a box of curiosity, layers of excitement and, oh yes, in the side compartment a bit of fear.
You are going on a wondrous trip. Your life. Enjoy every moment of it ’cause you only get to travel it once. Your trip doesn’t have a road map. You make it. Don’t rush it. Enjoy what will become terrific memories. Yes, you will hit dead ends but you will learn to recognize them next time. Be kind to those you leave behind as well as all you will meet. Be all that you can be. Listen to your gut instincts and do not lose those dreams.
So, years from now, when you look back over your journey you can honestly say…been there, done that, and loved every minute of it.

What great advice — could only be given by someone who has “been there, done that”!! Hope you had a terrific “adventure” so far!
THANKS JACKIE FOR YOUR KIND WORDS. I DID, I AM AND INTEND TO DO MORE. LIFE REALLY IS A HOOT!
Really awesome advice! Thanks. I am still on my journey and intend to make the most of it. Through the years, I’ve learned to know my limitations and take the challenges and choose the battles wisely. And by golly, it works! Makes for a very happy, stable, contented life. I am a widow and I am now living my life for me and life is beautiful!☺☺☺
