What Golf Means to Me
Author: Eddie Reece, MS, LPC
Golf means the world to me because golf is my greatest teacher. Like an ideal Zen master, golf has no bias. It is completely honest. The game has no attachment to how I play. It gives me brutally honest feedback. The ball is where it is, no matter how much I might want it to be someplace else.

Writer's Block
Author: Eddie Reece, MS, LPC
I’m very excited about the opportunity to write for FiftyAndFurthermore. I have a lot to say, though right now, I can’t think of anything. Such is my struggle with writing. I have countless moments while talking or thinking about something and realize it’d be a great idea for a column.

16th Annual Rhubarb Jones' Celebrity Golf Classic
Author: Eddie Reece, MS, LPC
I have chosen to participate in a very worthwhile golf tournament on April 21, 2008. The 16th Annual Rhubarb Jones’ Celebrity Golf Classic will be held at The Golf Club of Georgia and will be benefiting The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. This tournament is important to me because of all the faces I see of those who suffer from blood cancers.

Why Can't They All Just Get Along?
Author: Eddie Reece, MS, LPC
When my mom was mad about something I was doing or not doing she’d yell, telling me to behave. Behave. There’s an interesting word. What is a “have” anyway and how could I be one? Every time I get mad, it’s for the same reason. There is something or someone not behaving the way I want.

Cancer and Two Hole In Ones
Author: Eddie Reece, MS, LPC
I waited until I’d found just the right woman. I married Annie on September 22, 2001, in the shadows of nine eleven. We saw our wedding as a statement of hope in the face of what was almost unthinkable. I was 46 years old, a hold out, wanting a romantic relationship as close to perfect as possible. I found what I was looking for.

My Neighbor, My Wife
Author: Eddie Reece, MS, LPC
I didn’t marry my neighbor, but my neighbor is my wife. Here’s how it happened. Annie and I married and like most folks who marry or make what they hope is a lifetime commitment, we lived together. Notice I didn’t say we decided to live together. It was just a given. You get married, you live together. End of story.

Fifty and Furthermore
Author: Eddie Reece, MS, LPC
At fifty years of age, I feel like I’m just now really figuring out how to live my life. Too bad I’m more than likely past the halfway point. That thought really stirs up my childhood belief that life isn’t fair. Sure I know it’s not about fair. Part of me is so amazingly grateful to be figuring out some of the really important stuff. That causes another part of me to anticipate and feel some of the deep grief that comes as I more fully realize my life is heading much too rapidly to an end. Life
