Welcome To Fifty Five Is The New!

Hello out there!
What's it to you, turning the age of Fifty-five? You don't have to be turning it tomorrow, you could have already turned that corner a while back. That part doesn't matter so much.
While it's important what one feels, what matters most of all that one feels, that one feels anything at all.
So, as an exercise in self-examination and a way of getting over an incredible writer's block, I submit this blog to the World Wide Web, and I submit myself to a bit of mirror gazing.
Inspired by the movie "Julie & Julia," I will blog for one year, which will include my turning fifty-five, and see what I find.
Who knows? Maybe fifty-five will be something fantastic...like the New Me.

Foundation

Somebody asked me what I hope to get out of this blog.  In truth, I hadn't thought about that....other than using the thing as an exercise to get me through a severe writer's block.

But seriously, there is more to it than that. All this examination of the self leads to self-improvement, doesn't it?
It's an opportunity to see where one has been and learn from those experiences to be prepared for the road ahead.

The past really does help with the future. It's like a building project...ya gotta start with a foundation. And that's the past...the foundation.  If that's made strong through learning as one goes along, the resultant structure-in this case a life-will be sturdy.

So for today, Fifty Five Is The New Foundation....building a human being, one year at a time.
