We get up each morning. Begin our routine. Bathroom. Coffee. Read the paper. Watch the news. Shower. Dress. And so, the day begins.

In those moments are you living or existing? Me at that point I’m existing. Getting going in the morning is a real chore for me. I’m not a bright bubbly person at the start of the day.

Soon I’m living! I’m doing a job I love. Enjoying my husband and our beagle. Interacting with others. Planning what’s next. Enjoying the grass getting green, the beginning of leaves and flowers. Spotting my first Hummingbird of the year!

I hope all of you are LIVING as well!

Break your routines! The same old thing is boring!

Do something new and out of your ordinary.

Be the best you can be.

Let SeniorCenterCt.org assist you in your “out of the ordinary” journey.

Visit.

Plan.

Schedule.

Invite others.

Start doing!

Don’t ponder. Stop all that thinking and all those what ifs.

LIVE!
