You are Never too Old to Set Another Goal



"You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream." 

- C.S. Lewis

I could live for another 30-40 years but I often feel that I am too old to make any significant goals. As my body has slowed down, I just assumed my mind needs to slow down as well. Yes, there are things I want to do and accomplish. However, I didn't look at these as dreams or goals because they are different than the dreams I had 20 years ago. But they are! Isn't that what a dream is? A hope? A goal? Something we desire to do?
It does not matter what they are or that they have changed. It does not matter if it might be harder for me to attain them because I am not as young as I once was. None of us are. None of that matters. You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream.

Hello! I am Jamie- a nurse, a wife, and a mother (of 2 great kids and 3 amazing dogs). I have also lived with chronic illness, including chronic depression, since I was a teenager. Many years later, I now thrive with my depression rather than simply survive. I started this blog to share info and my experience with severe, chronic depression because I want YOU to thrive as well!
