"I have enjoyed greatly the second blooming that comes when you finish the life of the emotions and of personal relations; and suddenly find—at the age of fifty, say—that a whole new life has opened before you, filled with things you can think about, study, or read about."
Agatha Christie (1890-1976)
Thanks (again) to Elizabeth for snipping and pasting this quote in another blog so that I, in turn, could snip and paste it again! I actually do turn 50 this year and although I hardly feel at the end of "the life of the emotions and of personal relations" (never), a whole new life is definitely opening up here.
I received a call that I have been waiting for this morning, someone who might be offering me a counseling practicum, starting in March, which is exactly what I need right now.

Congratulations, Jennifer! It's wonderful to know you'll soon be in a position to share your considerable gifts with those in need -- and the need is so great all around us, and growing every day.
Turning 50 was one of the best things to ever happen to me! Seems lots of folks, women especially, report that experience.
Robin, thank you so much! And yes I have heard other women say the same thing. It can only get better, right? I sure hope so. :)
