Seven Years Later…

 

 

  “Follow your bliss” -Joseph Campbell 

 

 

Earlier in the week as Joe and I were preparing a meal together the conversation went to discussing what I could write about on this week’s blog post. Joe suggested that I might write a little about my 7 years of retirement.

hmmm…

 

 

Well…okay…

 

 

 There are many things I have learned in these past seven years lots of changes

 

 

One of my favorite authors Joseph Campbell came to mind.

 

 

I remember reading his definition of ego many years ago: “what you think you want, but you will to believe, what you think you can afford, what you decide to love, what you regard yourself as bound  to.”

 

 

I am thinking seven years of retirement later and into my retirement…

 

 

I’m discovering what has happened…is I’ve been transforming into another woman. crazy 

 

 

Seven years… just a beginning of a persistent, passionate search within for wholeness that  has been deeply hidden by so many things…now hopefully exposing itself even more in the years ahead.

    Thank you for your reflection of seven years of retirement!
    I am very happy for you that you are willing to continue to look within for wholeness.
    Never had heard of Jackfruit and will need to try it.
