Boomers often struggle with the art of aging gracefully. My 78-year-old father is a case in point. After a recent hospital stay and ongoing health issues, he and my mother still decided to vacation on a Greek island. Unsurprisingly, they're not enjoying it. Tourism can be taxing, especially when you're older and not in the best health.

Their choice reflects a common trap: seeking temporary pleasures instead of facing life's realities. They continue to run on the fiat hamster wheel, always chasing the next thrill.

So, consider this a gentle reminder to appreciate what you have today. True fulfillment doesn't come from a tourist resort; it comes from living authentically, accepting reality, and taking responsibility wherever possible. Show kindness to one another and blessings to all. 🙏
