Hi Thalia,

You know yourself best.  What is stopping yourself from following through with your suggestions.  Volunteering gives you a connection to others and can make a positive difference in your community.  Writing your memoirs gives you a connection to yourself and acts as therapy.  Reading is fine but a hobby carried out by one – depends on the subject matter – novels, autobiographies, studying a subject you are passionate about.  Book clubs where you discuss the content of a novel you are reading gives you a connection with like-minded people.

You can volunteer in all sorts of different areas – forestry, wall building, animal welfare, helping the elderly, and so on.  If you don’t already know where you would like to put your energies, give some thought to this.

Best Wishes

Peggy
