Words of Wisdom Wednesday: Don't go to Brooklyn if you don't want Brooklyn. In other words, don't try to change what is already there to better suit you. Instead, be open and accepting of what already is!

2026 Wellbeing Bingo

This is not a resolution list.
There is no prize for filling the board.
You do not need a “bingo” for it to count.

This is a gentle menu of possibilities.
Pick what feels supportive. Skip what doesn’t.

You might mark a square.
You might choose something else entirely.

Wellbeing is not linear.
Growth doesn’t happen on a deadline.
You are allowed to move at your own pace.

Every neurotype, every identity, every pace is valid. Your way counts!

For many people, old age is a time of significant personality change—but not necessarily in a good way, Faith Hill reported in 2023: https://theatln.tc/fVAD7Ykz

Psychologists have identified certain major, measurable personality traits called the “Big Five”: agreeableness, conscientiousness, extroversion, openness to experience, and neuroticism— that can change over time. New studies show the strongest personality changes tend to happen before age 30—and after 60. “In truth, personality can likely be nudged by our environment and our relationships—our commitments to other people, and their expectations for us—at any age. But before older adulthood, people might commonly be less pressed to change themselves; they can usually change their habits and environments instead,” Hill wrote. “If someone is no longer strong enough to go to dinner parties every week, they might grow less extroverted; if someone needs to be more careful of physical dangers like falling, it makes sense that they’d grow more neurotic.”

“At the same time, not all of the changes that come with old age are inevitable. And if older adults had more support from their communities and society, perhaps they’d be better able to command their circumstances—rather than having to compensate for factors slipping out of their grasp,” Hill continued. “There’s a stereotype that older people are grumpy shut-ins—withering away inside while yelling at some kid to get off their lawn. That judgment is obviously sweeping and unfair, but perhaps it’s also emerged, in part, from some real tendencies—tendencies that might be better understood as justified reactions to a harsh and inaccessible world. America’s population is rapidly growing older … Perhaps we’d do well to consider what older people’s living conditions can push them to become.”
