The Q1 Identity Crisis
I can’t think of anyone I know who hasn’t found their 20s to be a tumultuous tidraid of decisions that have ultimately left them feeling uncertain or unfulfilled by the direction their life is taking. This isn’t a feeling that is unceasing throughout the whole decade, there are other jubilant times when everything seems on track, chances taken turn into promising opportunities and friendships and relationships blossom.

Mid-Life Question
I have a seemingly easy question, unfortunately it has a hundred different answers depending on who you ask. Define old age, middle age, and being young? There are many factors to incorporate, many parameters to include and a pile of personal input which is why there will be so many answers. I ask as a forty-seven-year-old who’s not sure which, if any, bracket I fit in. Here are some of the things I think need consideration in working out the answer.

Alzheimer's
I will start writing for this site with a subject that many will worry about. This is losing their memory, losing their mobility, or losing their coordination. I have been caring for people with various disabilities and conditions for a number of years but for the last four years I have been caring for people with varying degrees and types of Alzheimer’s.

You Did Look That Young. Here’s How
In thinking a few days ago, I happened to randomly stumble across a thought; An idea to explain the phenomenon of how every time we look at a new group of students or a new age group they seem to look so much younger than we ourselves remember we looked.

Transformational Experience
The scariest part of living is passing through phases and changes of growing older. The child grows in a young adult, learning their bodies, developing their ideas, and trying to determine who they are. The caterpillar becomes the butterfly but what happens to the butterfly when its wings grow weak and the colors fade that once made that butterfly special and unique? Does the butterfly wither and slowly die or does the butterfly change and become something more beautiful? As time passes what happens when the butterfly decides that it no longer wishes to be a butterfly or was never really a butterfly?

Death May Be My New Best Friend
I might have too much free time on my hands somewhere. I do make time to write. I shop. I get my car repaired as necessary. I go to church. Somehow, I have too much free time because my finite mind started thinking about a topic that I can't shake and maybe I don't want to shake. Death!!

I Came!!! I Saw!!! I Pondered!!!
I am a teacher, musician, writer, son, brother, uncle, friend and a few other things. My enemies may call me a nudge, a pain, a problem and perhaps many other things. By just looking at my titles so far, I have room for one more-dreamer. What are my qualifications?

Life Lately
HELLO. Yes I know, it's been a hot minute. I've been distracted by so many things lately. Mainly by Grey's, though. I'm totally hooked (and also just a ball of emotions!). I've never cried so much in my entire life. And I'm not a crier, if that makes any sense. Anyone else?
