At 52.5, I’m fit, healthy, and content, after having a major health issue and learning to walk again. Accepting life as is, with gratitude!

The wisdom that comes in later years. After fighting for my health I’ve learned what’s truly important and what doesn’t really matter.
How do you stay fabulous?Since 2014 I’ve been doing a daily gratitude ritual. I also like to do a short bible study and pray. Most days I stretch. I’ve started doing yoga again. Now that I can walk, I walk nearly everyday, several times a day. Sometimes I just need a breath of fresh air and sometimes I need a 3 mile power walk. I practice radical self care and self love. I’ve got lots of tools in my toolbox so to say. I also talk with a therapist weekly. It’s important to heal all aspects of oneself.
What would you do with the $40,000?Purchase a vehicle. I couldn’t afford to maintain my vehicle and survive. I’d love to have a way to get to my appointments. It’s a lot to wait on a ride when you’re having a down day. I’d also rescue another dog and save some of that money in an account to take care of them.
