MIDLIFE MUSINGS: YOUR FORGOTTEN HAPPY

{MUSIC INTRO}

Hi there, my friend. It's me, Karli. Thanks for listening to my MIDLIFE MUSINGS.

Lately, I've been reading more than I have in a really long time. 

Near the end of 2023, at one of my events in Phoenix, several women were chatting about books they had read. I asked if there was any interest in being part of a book club and more than a few of them said yes. So I started one! 

I've never been part of a book club, let alone organized one, but it has been such a wonderful experience. The group selected books that I wouldn't have read otherwise, and I find it so interesting to hear the different points of view during our monthly gatherings. It has really pushed me out of my literary comfort zone.

Now that books are on my radar, I'm reading more than the book club selections. I'm turning pages every night before lights out. It's helping me sleep better. I'm finding space during the day to read rather than scroll mindlessly. I'm boosting my knowledge and I'm getting inspired.

The thing is I used to be a voracious reader. There were times when I was reading a couple of books a week. I had forgotten how happy I am when I am reading.

And that gets me thinking about you. What brings happiness into your life that you've forgotten about?

Think about the things that have faded from your life for one reason or another. What did you love doing? 

Maybe it's something you can easily create space for. Or perhaps it requires a bit of planning. 

I am so grateful for the nudge I received that brought reading back into my life. So, I'm here to encourage you to remember the happy you've forgotten about. 

Why not rekindle it today? 

Thanks for listening, my friend. I'll be back with another MIDLIFE MUSINGS in two weeks. Until then don't miss my regularly scheduled episodes of FLIPSIDE OF MIDLIFE®️ that come out every Wednesday.
