    After 70+ years I have found that
    Some activities are better than others
    Some foods ar better than others
    Some days are better than others
    Some seasons are better than others
    Some folks are better than others
    Some changes are better than others
    Anything is subject to change
    And, as we age, everything changes, some positive and some negative. The idea is to get through it as best as possible. Sometimes we need professional help of many kinds ( yup, that too) and so acknowledge it AND GET IT, OR NOT AND REGRET IT.

    We (don't) want the funk!

    Maybe some George Clinton turned up loud would actually help.

    That song always reminds me of Eddie Griffin in Undercover Brother .

    Seriously I hardly drink anymore but when I am in a funk, I take a weekend to myself and go out and get wasted.

    It might seem crazy, but it does one of two things. It either clears my head and reminds me what a great life I have and makes me wonder why do I want to waist it getting polluted, or it brings what's really bugging me to the forefront of my conscience.

    Of course if drinking isn't on the menu, going out on a weekend hike with just me, myself, and I works remarkably well too.

    I hope this doesn't sound silly but I think that you are bored. What interests you?

    This last weekend i found a mushroom type that I haven't eaten in a while. It made a good supper! Then some wild grapes that my grandson loved. I juiced the grapes but haven't figured out what to do with the juice yet.

    Maybe my point is.... Include yourself and your family, probably forget about your job. have variety. Go to a museum or listen to a new band? Change things up. Include your wife and family and/or do what interests them..


    Variety is the spice of life.

This can cause folks to want to make drastic changes in a hurry be it a new place to live or divorce or new job maybe. Just about everyone experiences this. Some need to make big changes and some are satisfied with a new hobby or a fancy car. It's all tied to the "mid life crisis". I think if folks are happy and secure in their lives they weather it pretty good.
