Dante, the famous Italian writer, described 35 as the “midway point” of life. As I near this age, I reflect on my journey and see there’s more to do. For the second half of life, I’m inspired by Borges: to watch more sunrises, climb more mountains, swim in more rivers, explore new places, enjoy ice cream, and eat fewer peas. :))
