What is Your Major Stress in Life?

What is your major stress in life? A few nights back, while queuing in a drive thru, my kids & I were talking about our personalities. We’re making fun of ourselves, and had a good laugh about it. On a serious side, I blurted out that I was a people pleaser. I wanted people to like me, and yes, it has been a major source of stress for me. It has been that way for me. I want to please my parents, siblings, teachers, classmates, bosses, co workers, hubby, kids, etc. I feel disappointment in myself, if I perceive that I don’t come up to their expectations. I feel ashamed of myself, if I deemed that I fail my children, whether imagined or not. These negative feeling does take a toll on my wellbeing. It took years learning this feeling of inadequacy, so it also took years to unlearn it. It is only through God’s mercy and love,  that I am able to accept myself, love myself. It is only through God’s unconditional love, that I am able to say, that  I  AM  ENOUGH.  I am a work in progress,

About Myself


Hi! My name is Mel and this is my blog. I am a 50 something wife and mother to four grown-up kids. I am currently working as a Cost Accountant in a Manufacturing Company. Read on to learn more about me and why this blog is a testament that middle life is beautiful.

Midlife is the age between 45 to 65 years of age, the stage between early adulthood and old age. Does it mean that if we fall between these ages we are “old” or does the adage “age is just a number” is indeed a fact? We can’t stop the years rolling by but like many other women, I would like to grow old gracefully. By gracefully, I mean to be able to continue to work, enjoy life by being able to travel on short vacations, watch movies, dine, enjoy good food with my family. I want to take care of myself, my health, how I look, the way I dress.

This blog is about inspiring & empowering women in the midlife bracket, seeing that there are few blogs catering to these demographics, I mustered enough courage to put up a blog where midlife women can connect and relate with each other as they go through their midlife phase.

Middle life is Beautiful is an avenue for midlife women to bond over their midlife experiences in their family, relationships, health, beauty, fashion & travels.

From here on, I would be sharing posts about the midlife journey, my travels, about health, beauty & fashion for women the same boat as I am but maybe the younger sets can enjoy reading them as well.

I hope you continue to follow me as I embark on my midlife journey.

Welcome to my blog!
