Greetings Steem Stars
Tonight I want to start exploring a subject that I've been giving a lot of thought to recently....
Because it seems to have been happening to me!
And there I was, thinking I'm a free minded, conscious, alternative thinker.
Looks like my biology has a lot to answer for!
So, is it a midlife crisis or a midlife opportunity?
I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences on this.

I always think that a midlife crisis starts with the overkill of oppertunities. Before this time we often were stuck to a certain pattern, just because it was so. (We are in school so we finish, we start a job so we work there, we live there because we have always lived there)
But at a certain point all of these options are more flexible and the world feels like it is at your feet! For me that is when then crisis starts, because there is so much opportunity!
When you have a choice of 2 dishes in a restaurant, you will just choose. When there are 200 choices one will become indecisive

I guess we're about the same age? I'm 46 and I can relate very well to a lot of what you talk about here. I've experienced many of these 'symptoms' and find myself being more spiritually aware and self aware than ever before. I wasn't sure whether it was an age thing, a technology thing, I dunno. Something I've found is that, as I get older, naturally I'm attending more funerals than I am weddings these days, and funerals really get me thinking and put me in a grateful, open and loving place. I'd like to try and stay there if I can, without needing a funeral first!

Funerals get us all thinking, but true: it would be better if we would do that without somebody dying around us.
I am a bit younger than you guys, but the same type of issues fly around here in the female form haha ;)
