Please help support Ryan Gallagher!

I know that this has absolutely nothing to do with the midlife journey, but our very good friend, Ryan Gallagher, has made it to the second round of CMT's Music City Madness music video competition.

Monday, March 5, is the last day to vote before we see who moves on to Round 3. Like American Idol, this is a fan and "viewer supported" competition. Ryan is an awesome young man with a very promising future and music career ahead of him. Please take a minute to go check out Ryan's video and if you like what you see and hear, please vote for him!

I know that I started out by saying that this post didn't have anything to do with midlife, but in a way, it does. How many of us didn't pursue our dreams when we were 18 years old? How many of us wish we'd had the courage to "go for it?"

Ryan is just embarking on his journey into adulthood, but it's not too late for us! What dream do you still have? What are the fears holding you back from "going for it?" What is the life you're missing out on by staying in your comfort zone? Is 2007 the year that you step out and make it happen? You can do it!!!
