From Railway Tracks to Life Tracks: My Midlife Shift

Hey, I’m Kurian Joseph “Sunny” for all.

I’m a 51-year-old government servant by profession… and a curious soul, creative writer, tech enthusiast, and health explorer by passion.

For decades, life moved on timetables. Duty at sunrise, responsibilities on strict rails. I showed up. I worked hard. I provided. But somewhere along the way—like many of us—I forgot to check in with myself.

Then midlife came knocking. Not with a crisis, but with a whisper:
“Pause. Breathe. It’s okay to ask—Is this all there is?”

That question didn’t break me. It broke me open.
To creativity. To wellness. To storytelling. To rebuilding my life from the inside out.


Why I Started FreshFiftyLife.com

I wanted to create a space where midlife doesn’t mean winding down, but rewiring.

Where age doesn’t mean invisibility—but intentional, soulful living.

This blog is my canvas. A place where I write about:

  • 💪 Reclaiming health and fitness after 50 (with real desi food!)
  • 🩺 Managing diabetes, inflammation, and weight—the literal and the figurative
  • 🌸 Discovering a quieter, more meaningful lifestyle
  • 💻 Staying relevant in a fast-changing tech world
  • 📖 Becoming a student of life all over again

It’s not perfect. It’s not polished. But it’s real.
And maybe that’s the beauty of midlife—we’ve finally stopped pretending.
