Once the kids leave the nest and that halfway birthday milestone of 50 appears on the horizon, we often find ourselves wondering who the heck we are after so many years of focusing our attention and energy on others.  It’s time to take a look inward and focus on who we are becoming rather than who we have been.

Our empty-nesting member, Kala Cota, expresses that newfound sense of self exploration and discovery in this lovely poem.
