“The more clearly, steadily, consistently, and repeatedly we see the changing nature of phenomena of experience, it reorients our minds. It reorients our minds towards care and loving kindness rather than clinging and attachment. It reorients our minds towards letting go rather than grasping. It reorients our minds towards the experience of freedom.” – Joseph Goldstein

Ever feel like the ties from the first half of your life fall away pretty quickly while you're forging new ties for the second half?
I always thought life was more linear and the things/people in your life would remain the things/people in your life from beginning to end. Personally, that's not the case. Everything has changed, some for the great (my job) the rest is transitioning to something I don't quite see yet. Regardless, the second half of my life is radically different from the first.
