After much introspection here’s what I’ve decided: turning 60 is a good thing! This is the phase of life we all strive toward; the stage we think about and plan for and look forward to as we toil through earlier decades of school, work, raising kids, and saving money. “When I retire,” we tell ourselves for years, “I will travel, get in shape, play golf, etc.”
What a great stage of life to be in! At 60, I have good health, (enough) money in the bank, and the time and interest to do things and go places. I have freedom to do what I want every day of the week, and the ability to do it. Isn’t that amazing?
