Someone told me today that they were considering some changes. The context for those, he expressed, was a brush with mortality that got him thinking.
What he is contemplating doing is getting rid of alot of his "stuff", downsizing to something much smaller, freeing himself from debt...so he can do the really important things in life.
I am there, too. I am a little younger, but daily reminders of the shortness of life cause me to ask, "What really matters?" It is a discipline for me because I find it easy to get caught up in "stuff".
I know better. People like the fellow I spoke to this morning are helpful reminders.
