As it turns out, I keep doing these posts in the evening when all my sense of creativity and deep thoughts have fled and I’m left talking about something ‘back of the mind’ like football be it youth or otherwise. I don’t want to think too deeply about that though. I’ve made significant progress compartmentalizing that aspect of my life to the point where I won’t even acknowledge Monday Night Football unless the Giants are playing.
So, what am I acknowledging instead?
I believe that is the key to sustaining happiness over the next 50 years that constitute the swell of my life. I need to discover what my partner and I want to do with our time. What is it going to be that defines us as us. What are we both about? While it is one thing to each have our own thing, it is another to only have our own thing. I’ve been thinking about the idea of what makes relationships last to the end and I truly believe this formula of yours, mine, ours is it.
Some Thoughts:
- I remain afraid of dying. To be clear, I remain afraid of not existing.
