It’s Up To Us, A Spoken Word Poem

“It’s Up To Us,” A Spoke Word Poem
by Nancy Lang Gibbs

For those of you who are Loving Later Life regulars, you know that I began this podcast to connect us all so that we feel heard, seen, inspired and also entertained.

My hope is that you’ll be inspired by my guests and perhaps even through my experiences that it is not ever too late to go for what you want in this precious life we have been gifted.

There are also times when I am compelled to express a point of view that I am passionate about. This is one of those times, and the way it manifested was in a spoken word poem.

Some of you may have seen my YouTube video of this already and if you haven’t, after you listen to this episode, I invite you to go watch the video. The link is in the show notes page for this episode, if you go to nancylanggibbs.com, click on the arrow next to podcast in the top bar and then click on Show Notes. Then click on this episode entitled It’s Up To Us and scroll down for the link. Or you can go to YouTube and search Nancy Lang Gibbs, It’s Up To Us. (Or below if you’re reading this on the Show Notes page!)

I ask if perhaps you are not on the same page as I am, that you listen anyway to open the aperture of your lens. For those who are on the same page, please forward the link to others and ask them to do the same. The message, I believe, is so very important to share.

Thank you for listening and until the next time, Live Passionately, Live Vulnerably and Keep Loving Later Life.

After an Emotional Month I Wonder: Is Life About…

After an Emotional Month I Wonder:
Is Life About the Big Moments or
The Moments In Between?

The past month has been one of a lot of feelings and experiences from one end of the spectrum to the other, some anticipated some not.

From the saddest moments to the most exciting. From feeling disconnected, irrelevant and sad to the point of my face breaking out (which nevvver happens) to feeling embraced by the most loving hugs; both literally and metaphorically.

It seems like it’s the big moments in life that attract most of our attention and anticipation. They are the times that embed themselves as memories in our mental film library.

There’s no question that our huge accomplishments are huge and important. AND, so are the moments in between that fill our hearts and life experience.

This got me thinking more about moments in between (the good ones of course)…an exercise I highly recommend doing.

Remembering past good in between moments also reminds you that you had them, even when perhaps there were other not such good things happening at the same time. And that can be true again.

Many of us are afraid that in later life there are to be fewer of these moments. And I say, if you believe that to be true, it will be. What do you choose to believe?

I hope you’ll join me to also hear which moments in between of mine came to mind.

Not be missed take-ways:

  1. If you want to see someone, or talk to someone, call them. Don’t wait for them to call you.

  2. If you want to see the ocean, the mountains, a sunset, a sunrise, do it.

  3. If you want more moments in between, notice them, create them, find them; they are waiting for you.

And your mission, that I hope you’ll choose to accept…

Pay attention to the moments in between and remember them…and keep creating new ones.


Thank you so much for listening! And until the next time, live passionately, vulnerably, and keep loving later life!
