Article Round-Up: 1.15.23
Enjoy this week’s curated round-up of articles, podcasts, and more from the web.
This weeks round-up is a bit different. You’ll only find one article shared this week, and that’s because I found it so powerful that I wanted to put a spotlight on it. I HIGHLY recommend you check it out.
“Essential Life Wisdom From 90-year-olds”
Takeaway: As the author describes it, “The responses were...incredible. They range from fun, playful, and witty to deeply moving. I'd encourage you to read through them with your loved ones and reflect on those that hit you the hardest.” There’s nothing more I can add except those which moved me the most.
#3: Tell your partner you love them every night before falling asleep.
Someday you’ll find the other side of the bed empty and wish you could.
#4: Don’t fear sadness, as it tends to sit right next to love.
This is part of the fundamental balance and tension of life. The joy of love comes in the same package as the pain of loss.
#20: The "good old days" are always happening right now.
"I wish there was a way to know you were in the good old days before you actually left them." - Andy Bernard, The Office
There is...treat every day as the good old days.
Enjoy, friends.
