agreed! She really lays it out there, the good and the tough:

"Putting down the cudgels and giving myself permission to be exactly who I am is my jam going forward."

whew! inspiring doesn't cover it. I'll take a rain check on this for a week or two. partly grieving, partly finding the love to give people around me who are grieving. 'life skills' I never thought I'd need. death doesn't wait, it just arrives one day, and stays. mmmm ...

That sounds hard, Roy. I’m sorry you are grieving. What had happened? I love Katy’s answers to the five questions. They are raw and true but warm and fresh. I released a piece in Katy reading my tarot cards… she can read your!

My first Maven 5Q! Thank you for writing so honestly. Your reflections will no doubt resonate with others, “giving myself permission to be exactly who I am is my jam going forward.” Words to live by! Than you, Katy!

What do you think of the Maven5Q? It's a great way to hear from a lot of different people doing a lot or a little but each having their own experience in this time of life, "midlife." We can learn from each other!
