1-PARAGRAPH SUMMARY AND MEMOIR OF THE LAST 40 YEARS
I've lived a blessed and faithful life of sunshine and storm. I've loved, been loved, and have journaled. Life has been good. It hasn't been easy or simple, but it's sure been blessed. I thank God for all of my experiences and the people in my life. As to the best and worst decades of my life so far, the best and worst has been the last ten years and has been a time of supreme blessing.

2-PARAGRAPH SUMMARY AND MEMOIR OF THE LAST 40 YEARS
I'm going to try to write a new summary, but the blessing part will carry through.

The last forty years have been a time of great blessing. I thank God for everything and everyone my life has seen thus far. My experiences have been good, tough, and in-different and I wouldn't trade any of them. They've made me who I am. I've tried to live a life of faith and it's been my faith that has sustained me through most of these decades. 

My life has been thoroughly blessed because God has kept me alive for a reason and a purpose. I've done my best to live His purpose each day and bring Him glory. Moreover, each day, I've tried to reflect and see the blessings He's given me in the past, and in the present, as I wait for future blessings. The fact is He has worked through me, around me, and in me and I've tried to pay attention. In other words, I've tried to live for eternity today, where I try to live a better, closer life with Him each and every day, where I stay alert to see God and His work in my life. This has made my life one of great blessing.
