At lunch with my friend Doris yesterday, we shared some “up close and personal” stories about ourselves and mutual friends through the years. We smiled as we agreed that the big decisions and high stakes lie in the past and along with them the drama and excitement.
Today, I find what might seem depressing to be oddly comforting. A new job, love affair, or home becomes a new book, new class or new restaurant. Or even, smelling a new bar of soap.
Boring? Remember, we can put danger, guilt and regret in the rear view mirror too.
Wish it were that easy.
