The answer to this question for me today is "Living life". I went through several hard years and after I came out of that period I told myself that I was going to enjoy life. So I embarked on figuring out what life should be for me and I have been living it.

I´m with you there John... none of us know if we have a tomorrow, so I believe in living my life each day. So many people plan and save for their future... and some don´t have one. I never want to be one of those people who are dying and saying " I wish I would have...."

Sooooooo many things....where to begin?
My daughter, health, the means to do the things I enjoy - money dont buy happiness but it sure does facilitate it
, interesting conversation, stimulating work, good friends, enough food to eat, challenges that can be overcome, seeing new places, meeting new people, variety....I could go on and on...and I dont need all of these at the same time even...many of them are fairly small simple things but as long as they hold the majority against the less positive then Im generally happy - which means I usually am actually happy

This is the motto I live by! Many people ask me "Who do you travel with?" and when I answer no one, I get the look! I decided a little while back that I was going to see this beautiful country and the world. I also figured I couldn't wait for 'her' to show up before I start. I don't want to be on my death bed and say "I wish I would be done that."
I was scared at first. I didn't know if I would enjoy and like travelling alone. I found out I do. I am alone, but not lonely when I am travelling.

I was 40 when I did the same thing... and it was terrifying to start with... selling everything I owned and venturing into the world. It was the best 3 1/2 years I ever spent and it drastically changed the way I live my life. I also got a lot of strange looks... a 40 something woman backpacking around the world on her own... but I met some amazing people and had some incredible experiences and never felt lonely.

The only big drawback I find is associated with the amount of time I am travelling makes it hard to meet ladies. I travel about 4 to 6 months a year. Because I am alway on the move, I normally don't meet many women and have 'second' dates.

Definitely living life! I intend to live my life to it's fullest, enjoying family & friends each day. Being thankful for what I've got & not dwelling on the things I haven't got.

When it's meant to happen, it will, John. Besides, you haven't met these PA women... yet!

Soon, soon it will happen. Even sooner since I cut out my west coast swing. I eliminated 2,000 miles when I decided not to go to Coos Bay Oregon and Vancouver Canada. I did this so I could possibly make the New York CS Camping trip that Jesse is organizing.

There are many;my children (teens) are what makes
me happy,my sweetheart of a granddaughter Skye.
Each morning I sit at my kitchen window with a cup
of coffee and reflect on what was yesterday but,
look forward to today.Being at one with nature also
makes me happy;to see the beauty of the land around me.
And,having the priviledge of finding and making new friends.
me happy,my sweetheart of a granddaughter Skye.

Hence the importance of having a flexible travel plan... so that if you decide to stay somewhere for a while, you can. I dated a man in Italy for about a year... I´d leave and travel around Europe for a bit and come back, and on a few occasions he went with me on trips... flexibility is key!

2. Time for myself with friends on the golf course or in the pub.
3. Money, not because I'm materialistic, but money buys you time to do the things above and provides security for my family.

Totally agree with you! Family, golf and resources enough to enjoy life is the perfect trifecta.
