The Art of Not Dying on Schedule
To the Friends of the Timeless:
the ones still dreaming at 70, still launching at 50, still learning new dances, new languages, new ways to be outrageous…
This is for you.
There is a script:
Be born. Be nice. Be quiet.
Be useful. Be on time.
Retire. Fade. Exit politely. Die on schedule.
But some of us… didn’t.
We missed the deadline.
Lost the script.
Spent the pension.
And somehow …. forgot to die.
This isn’t rebellion: It is resurrection.
Of soul. Of story. Of self.
Of every version of us that refused to fade just because the world told us “it was time!”
We are not behind. We are off-grid. We are not done.
We are divinely delayed for dramatic effect.
QUO VADIS, Darling?
These thoughts sparked from a L.I.F.E Conversation I recently shared with Penny: a soul-rich, cash-poor kind of sophisticated woman.
Now in her later-life stage, she is setting up a new venture. “Why?” I asked.
She smiled back. Her answer dressed in silk:
“Darling… I guess I spent the pension and forgot to die.”
We laughed so much, not at death, but at life. At the exquisite timing of resilience. At how the fire still burns, if we instruct our spirit to spiral upward.
So if you relate to Penny’s story, know this:
You didn’t retire. You realigned.
You didn’t decline. You deepened.
You didn’t run out of time. You rewrote it.
Because living a legacy doesn’t follow a schedule. It follows those who dare to echo.
And you, darling! you are the echo that keeps them wondering:
“What kind of myth is she composing?”
You’re not a chapter.
You’re a postscript no one saw it coming.
You’re not a cautionary tale.
You’re a comeback with better lighting.
Welcome to The Art of Not Dying on Schedule!

Legacy Doesn’t Expire. But Opportunities Do.
