Once upon a time...

 

A black and white collage of childhood imagery. Three girls playing together, an infant playing with toys, two parents measuring the height of their daughter, and two young siblings chatting on steps. Text states, "Childhood Innocence", "Adolescence", "Growth, Playfulness, Identity, Friendship, Curiosity, Learning, Self-Discovery, Independence, Simplicity, Imagination"
Childhood: characterized by curiosity and learning.

The time for personal and professional milestones.

 

A black and white collage of adulthood symbols. A family crossing the side walk, a young couple laughing, a bloomed flower, two corporate employees shaking hands.
Adulthood is full of physical and intellectual maturity. One is focused on family and career.

 


A black and white collage, of retirement symbols. An elderly woman kissing her grand daughter, an elderly woman reading, old men playing cards in the park, an elderly woman reading with her grand daughter, and a wall of polaroid photos.
Older adulthood is a time to focus on legacy, spending time with family, and enjoying the fruits of one's labor.

 

A black and white collage of end of life symbols. A photo of an elderly woman smiling, a photo of a cross, two elderly women breathing in fresh air, and two kids kissing their grandmother on her cheek.
Contemplating life’s journey, finding peace and closure.

 

That is our life journey in black and white but may you live your life in full color.

Remember to embrace every stage with grace and gratitude to allow you to appreciate the full spectrum of each experience, growing in wisdom and love with each passing year.
