Lifetime Membership: Yea or Nay – January 30, 2023

Lifetime Membership: Yea or Nay – January 30, 2023

by Tulis McCall | Monday Musings

The other day I signed up for a Lifetime Membership for a Meditation App. It seemed like a no-brainer, until I heard myself think, “Wait a minute – how long would I have to live to make this lifetime membership worthwhile?” A quick calculation told me I would have to live for three more years. That sounded doable. But what in the Sam Hill am I doing thinking thoughts like THAT?

    I have always used the phrase, “When you leave early, all the lights are green.” This, for some reason seems to be true, at least the opposite is true. The times I have been frustrated about leaving late and finding every traffic light red (only adding to my frustration) has not been worth it. Get the lifetime subscription to everything and happy birthday.

        You could do an entire blog about the phrase. Lights don’t have to be traffic lights and green can mean so much more. Much love

    Leaving early … slowing down… taking your time… these are phrases I’ve heard in my YOUTH. Now, I completely understand the deep value of all of these. And LOVE this musing… Thank you!!!!

      When it warms up a little bit, you and I should take that walk by all the dancing elm trees in the central park, OK?

    Didn’t get around to reading this until today, Tulis. But doing so made it a no-brainer (didn’t have to rely on memory) to send you a happy birthday wish today, since it IS today! Great to see your mind hasn’t slowed down any; I think it was wise of you to come back from L.A., cuz NY,NY requires you to stay young at heart (and mind)!

Do you have a budget? I have never had a budget. I don’t know from budgets. I don’t want a budget. But I find myself being cornered into making one – whip and chair in hand. We call this – Wake-Up Call: The Advanced Course. I will be leaving my day job within a few months.

Go Ahead. Stick Your Neck Out. March 6, 2023

Let’s face it – we ALL know we are there when things go wrong. Did you ever notice that you are always there when things go right?
Every good thing? It’s because you stuck your neck out. Grand gestures. Teeny tiny ways. Things you did that you don’t even notice. Well, notice! Give yourself some credit, pal.
