Thank you for reading the story, “Upon Turning Seventy.”
Its takeaway is: Relax…And find the JOY in the JOurneY.
Now grab your notebook or journal and if this line evokes something in you, write down what you are thinking.
If not, here are three prompts – borrowed from the story – to write about instead:
- This story is a letter to my 16-year-old self. Write such a missive to the teenage version of yourself.
- When you were a child, what did you want to grow up to be? Did you attain that goal? How do you feel about that goal now?
- If you were having a chat with God, what information would you be asking for? I wanted an assurance I would someday have kids, but God wasn’t handing out clues.
As always, write about one of these prompts or all of them. There is no right or wrong, just what feels best to you.
