Not Midlife Crisis but rather Midlife Reprioritization

2000 was the year both my daughters left for college. They were excited to learn new things, meet new people, experience independence and learn about themselves! They were entering a new phase of personal growth. With hardly a backward glance, my girls stepped into a new season of life without me, their mother.

2000 was the year I entered a new season of my life. I was excited to learn new things, meet new people and learn about myself! I began to imagine I could be something other than be a mother. I began to hope that God had an extended plan for my life ... maybe he had a purpose for this new season of my life. What did I want to do, where did I want to go, how did I want to live my life?

Those questions led me to Second Acts by Stephen Pollan and Mark Levine ...
