FROM THE<br />
EDITOR<br />
Dear Friends,<br />
It’s <strong>2014</strong>! What are you<br />
planning to do with this new<br />
year?<br />
A Facebook friend posted<br />
an article that encouraged<br />
adopting a theme for the new year, rather than<br />
making resolutions. “The theme should be a word<br />
that resonates with you and embodies something<br />
that has been missing from your daily life,” the article<br />
Tanya Tyler • tanya@samplerpublications.com<br />
said. “Instead of defining specific behaviors that you<br />
want to do [like losing weight or quitting smoking],<br />
simply keep your theme in mind and allow your days<br />
to unfold from there.”<br />
I like that idea. I’m going to choose “quirkiness” as<br />
my theme for <strong>2014</strong>. This will encourage me to do<br />
things I might not normally do, such as participating<br />
in one of those 5K races where they throw “color<br />
bombs” at you. Or going to a music concert by a<br />
group I’ve never heard of. Or trying a restaurant that<br />
features food I’ve not eaten before. It will definitely<br />
include traveling to places I’ve never been but have<br />
long wanted to visit. (Vienna, anyone?) It might even<br />
mean finally going skydiving – something that’s been<br />
on my bucket list for a few years now.<br />
Whatever theme you choose for <strong>2014</strong>, make sure it<br />
enhances your overall goal of <strong>Living</strong> <strong>Well</strong> 50 Plus.<br />
Live life like you mean it!<br />
