This is lovely and insightful. I realize that anticipation is what has dimmed for me now that I’m in my 70’s. I need to find new things, new goals and aspirations. What will my husband be like? what will I be when I grow up? how will I decorate my house? no longer excite me. I’ve already done everything on my bucket list.
I hear you—and I’ve been there. That dimming of anticipation is so real when the big “milestones” are behind us.
One thing that helped me was getting curious about what else might still be waiting in me, even now. I put together a little guidebook to help spark that kind of wondering. It’s not a to-do list—it’s more like a quiet companion for women like us who still want life to feel juicy, even in the stillness. https://monirose.gumroad.com/l/roadmap
