On Being 40...

"Who am I now?

That has been an ongoing question in my brain. Who am I now? What is going
to happen now? What do I want out of life now? How much time do I really
have now? How do I plan to live now?

The way I used to see the world and the way I used to live in it has changed
for me. It's kind of hard to explain, you see life unfolding around you but
the way you perceive it, interact with it, and relate to the events are so
different from the way you used to. It's hard for family and friends to
understand that, as you "look" like the person they knew. They can't "see"
these profound changes within you.

I have this ongoing chatter in my head... what's the most important thing
you need to learn "today"? How's that going to happen? What actions will you
take? And so on...

I feel a little bit like a preschooler asking myself all these questions
that I don't have the answers to. Right now I am a "seeker of life." I am
looking to make the best choices for me. I am seeking a better me, a better
quality of life, better relationships with others, etc.

I know that this is a significant period of change for me, because I am
questioning so many things that surround me.

Hmm... Let me ask you, what can you live with in your life? What do you need
to enhance? What do you need to let go of? So many questions... so many
questions. "

I found this on besthealthmag.ca. Funny to have just stumbled upon something that captures EXACTLY how I feel.
