Where Baby Boomers Make Peace with Their World

As an "official" Baby Boomer, having turned 50 last year, I took a self-imposed sabbatical to decide what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. Guess that's not so different from other Baby Boomers who arrive at the half-century mark a little shocked, wondering where the first 50 years have gone and what awaits in the next.

Teri's Serendipity: Where Baby Boomers Make Peace with Their World, is the result of my musings. It's a place I created for Baby Boomers to share writing I feel passionate about with those of you who are going through the same things, whether it be Empty Nest Syndrome, weight loss, losing parents and friends, or not having enough time to really shop the nearest Wal-mart.

We Baby Boomers are in this together, trying to come to grips with being in our 50s and not having the world laid out at our feet the way we thought it was destined to be. But no one should give up on us yet.

I hope you will visit here often and maybe even bookmark Teri's Serendipity, a sure sign that it's a place where you feel comfortable.
