I was talking with a close friend who knows I’m on the crest of the cliff right now, standing at the edge, ready to toss in the old life, to start anew. She has never been a risk taker, as opposed to me, who would always welcome a challenge.
Some things just don’t scare me.
But then some do. Especially when I speak of giving up a life I’ve known & am familiar with. She needs the safe route out. I’d rather wait it out.
“You know what you need to do,” she said. “I know but some of it is hard to give up.you never know,” I said, “A miracle could happen.”
Silence for a second. “There are no such things as miracles ” she answered. “There are,” I said. “There just has to be.”

First and foremost, I'm a baby boomer and damn proud of it. The ones reading this post survived. Some didn't..We are the generation that crashed through barriers, broke through the norm and made our own rules. We paved the way for others to follow their bliss. One of the largest breakthroughs was probably equal rights and opportunities for women. Thank you Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedan. We burned our bras, well, most of us did. We marched against politics we didn't believe in, staged protests not knowing we could easily be silenced by a bullet, experimented with drugs, meditation and guru's. We traveled with backpacks across the country and throughout the world..We had a voice. We had a choice. We had a mission. We had freedom and we were united. I am a writer, traveler, explorer, observer and participant in life. I am part of the expansion of baby boomers who still believe in the original message of peace and love. Take this journey.with me. Who knows where it will take us next ?
