“Life at Sixty-One – Looking Back and Looking Ahead”


This Tuesday marks a significant milestone in my life. I turn sixty-one, and that means that I’m officially an elderly person in today’s world. I’ve certainly experienced more life than I can put into words and my reflections of the past make me more grateful for what I have and how far I have come.

Over the past sixty-one years, I’ve faced innumerable challenges, moments of heartache, joy, adventure and lessons learned along the way. When I think back, there are a few special moments that truly stand out in my memory.

On the flip side, my thoughts often turn to the future. It can be difficult to tell exactly where life will take me from here, but I look ahead with enthusiasm and open arms. I’ve been given an amazing opportunity to be an active member in my family and my community for a few more decades. I’m going to make the most of the time I have, by seizing the day and making each moment count.

At the same time, I understand that with age comes the importance of taking care of yourself. Now more than ever, it’s essential that I pay attention to my health and find balance in my day-to-day life. I’ve learned that no matter how difficult it can be to make time for yourself, it is crucial to give back to your own well-being.

Overall, my outlook is positive as I turn sixty-one and look to the years ahead. Life may take some unexpected turns and obstacles, but I’m prepared to face it head-on. No matter what life throws at me, I am certain that my passion and ambition will see me through to whatever lies ahead. Here’s to an exciting future and the journey to get there!
