50 Ways to Leave Your 40s

Last week we wrote about how the authors of the forthcoming book "50 Ways to Leave Your 40s" are looking for people with stories to tell about their midlife experiences.

According to their website, they are looking for basic insights into the midlife experience in "all its mundane, joyful, painful, funny, unexpected, gratifying, [insert your own list of adjectives here] manifestations." They'd like to get your "one-liner, joke, insight, lesson learned, favorite midlife book or movie, whatever!"

The authors' website (link above) has some ideas to get you started:

1. The Classic Midlife Crisis (whatever that means to you)
2. Near-death experience
3. Mentoring a young person (on the job or as a Big Brother/Big Sister)
4. “I’m a foster parent."
5. Caring for elderly parents
6. “I became a parent for the first time in midlife”
7. Hypnotherapy or self-hypnosis for lifestyle change
8. "I got Rolfed!"
9. First-hand experience with the Alexander Method
10. Confronting addiction
