I'm taking another pause from our story, long enough to post about a very unique woman I met today, in my real life. Her name is Penny, she is 85, and has more energy AND life experience than I do and was absolutely enchanting. I'm not going to share the details of this encounter now (they are worth the wait, trust me) but it did lead me to finally post what we in the group therapy community have been kicking around for a few weeks . . . Membership beyond the founders . . . Yes, that might include you. We are exclusive, because we have in fact earned the right to be exclusive, but not snobs, necessarily. Remember, you must be within 12 months of turning 50, at least, and a few other criteria listed to the left. After meeting Penny today, I had an epiphany . . . Her stories will die with her if they aren't told and documented, to be shared and treasured! In this world of instant gratification, I suggest we turn this little group into a movement (don't worry, I'm not suggesting a cult, I'm Episcopal for goodness sake and we don't do cults) or an entity that helps to keep track of ALL that is too funny about life and the way we all choose to live it! So, if you are interested, keep following and look for the way to join in the coming weeks. Who knows what we could all accomplish if we put our collective heads together to ngage-the-humor and record what is too funny . . . sounds like fun to me!
To be continued . . . I promise
