A bit about me...
Hello! I’m Charlene. I’m over 60; living in the Gloaming.
What’s Gloaming? According to Webster, it’s the dim light of evening; twilight or dusk.
Not long ago, I woke up one morning thinking, “How did I get here? This wasn’t what I had planned.
Is this it? Where did everybody go?”
I realized I had fully entered a time in my life when it felt like there was no direction, no map and I felt like I was unequipped to navigate this new journey.
At first there was a feeling of being lost, disconnected and left behind. Then, I realized I had a choice as to how this new journey was going to be lived.
