Question #10

Question#10 How do I envision myself at 60? What would I look like? What would I like to know? What should I be doing now that I will happily look back on then?

I envision myself as a short little, garden dwelling, crafty grandmother. I know a lot of people think its gross, but I totally want really long hair when I'm an old lady. I want to put it into braids in it and wear it in a pony. I want to wear really comfortable clothes and do a ton of crafts. I want a huge garden to tend to, containing all the vegetables I cook and eat - and at least one fruit tree.
I would like to know that I led a life of happiness and good faith. I want to feel that I was successful in what ever I set out to do.
I would want to posses confidence that I raised my children well, taught them appreciation, respect and good values. I want to spoil my grandchildren, teach them about nature and do arts and crafts with them when they come to my house for the weekend.
I want both to know that they can always depend on me and come to me for nonjudgmental advice no matter what age I am.
I want Travis and I to be healthy and happy. I want us to have a home that we love and tend to - but spend the winters sailing the Caribbean in our sleeper boat.
At age 60, we will have been married for 36 years. Im hoping our relationship will become even deeper than it ever having lived together for that long and watching our children grow up and have children of their own. We will still be able to make each other laugh and have a blast together like we always do. That I am sure of.

I think we are taking the right steps health wise to live healthy when we are older - I have firm beliefs that our vegetarian lifestyle will allow us to live longer and stronger with less ailments and illnesses.

I know that I will still email and talk to Stacy almost everyday - reminiscing, talking about our kids and grandkids, laughing and consoling each other like always.

I hope I am making the right choices in life - that I will happily look back on then - I'm just doing what's right for me. I rely on my belief that everything happens for a reason.
