Welcome to Celebrating70! You’ve come to the right place to connect with kindred spirits “of a certain age” who are determined to face the future with amazing grace, true optimism, a passion for learning and – perhaps most importantly – a sense of humor. To do otherwise would be to sell ourselves short!

As I hope you are already well aware, you and I bring truly unique value to this big world around us. Sadly, that value is often overlooked. Let’s choose to embrace and honor our value as we move forward on this life’s journey. We will connect with each other, encourage each other, share with each other, and absolutely continue to learn and grow. We have stories to tell…and stories still to write!

Look for these in Celebrating70:

Life’s Lessons Learned. You know we have a lot of them! Some are sweet, some are sad, some are difficult, some are joyous. They all make us who we are today.

Words to Live By. Quotes can remind us of simple truths that help us make it through the day. We’ll collect some favorites!

Counting Our Blessings. Acknowledging our many blessings helps us face difficulties as they come our way. And we know they will!

The University of Life. Life is our classroom! If we wake up in the morning, we have another opportunity to learn. And we learn in so many wonderful ways. Maybe you’ll share how you continue to learn!

Our Goals and Dreams. Goals give us energy, a sense of direction, and a really good reason to get up in the morning. Don’t be without them!

Oprah Winfrey once said, “Surround yourself only with people who are going to lift you higher.” The Celebrating70 community will cheer you on – and lift you higher – as you choose to truly live all the remaining days of your life.

Let’s celebrate our long lives…together!
