We’re not made to withdraw from life. We’re made to seize each moment and value every breath. We’re made to be bold — to take risks, to help others. We are the most creative, fearless, passionate being that ever walked the face of the earth.

Don’t identify with limitations — embrace possibilities. This is not the beginning of the end. This is the beginning of what's next. This is Growing Bolder.

This quotation is from Marc Middleton, host and founder of the PBS half-hour weekly show Growing Bolder and author of the book by the same name.

I love this program as it showcases seniors and others who have risen above challenges to become more vital, powerful, and robust beings.

Often these men and women have used their hardships and tragedies to help not only themselves but others, as well.

Is it a time to explore?

It is not just through difficulties that we grow and evolve. Any time a change occurs, whether we are the initiators of the transformation or it came upon us unwelcome, it is a time for growth. This period can also be an opportunity to step into a new phase of our life.
