Karrets, somewhere in my codependency I lost sight of who I was too and had to get to know "that stranger called me". I was middle aged heading toward senior, and at first it was scary but it became quite fun seeking out new adventures that would make me happy and joyful. Hobby photography and nature (the two often go together) got me outdoors and how wonderful is the beauty I have discovered there. I have shot (with my camera) gators in the Everglades and dolphins swimming behind the boat on a gulf island trip. I take day trips to shoot migrating birds or wild turkeys in the country. I did some inner work, reading, meditating and through prayer, and I put into action a plan to live my dreams and find joy in each sunrise.

You can do it too. It's a wonderful gift to find happiness and feel inner peace, whether we are alone or with people.

Hugs
