Midlife: Mirth & Musings

Episode 008: Someone Else's Shoes (Empathy)

I try to look at things from others' perspectives.

Episode 007: How'd I get here? (Regurgitation)

Numerous times, I have woken up from a night of drinking and didn't know how I got to where I woke up, where I was when I woke up (initially), and/or was missing an article of clothing. This episode is a regalement of the times I can remember.  Is it bad that there's more than one time? Hmmm ...

Episode 006: Coming together, for both happy and sad times (Gatherings)

A few tangents in this one, but I hope they balance out some of the more somber portions. My wife asked the other day if we know anyone that might be getting married sometime soon.; we don't. A friend mentioned how friends of theirs were travelling to attend a wedding and two funerals. Another old friend reached out to me and mentioned how some people we knew back in the day are gone.  All this wedding and funeral talk got me thinking about how the context for coming together changes throughout our lives; from childhood, to young adulthood, to adulthood, and into your later years.

Episode 005: It's not about me; it's not about me (Selfishness)

Center of attention, and not always in a good way. There's definitely room for growth.

Episode 004: Straight Talk (Candid)

It was a busy week and didn't have as much time to flesh out an outline for an episode, so this is just me talking to ya. (Trying to keep down the "ums!")
