In keeping with the mission of 50plus LIFE—To serve the mind, heart, and spirit of the 50+ community—we are taking this opportunity to showcase the writing abilities of our boomer and senior community. OLP Events asked readers to let us know about the biggest challenge they had to navigate through, and how they come through it. Did it change the course of their life? Some just had a funny story to tell. Others liked the rhythm of words and submitted a poem.

Please enjoy the stories and poems submitted by your fellow boomers and seniors.
