As we speak, I am exploring for myself the issues of “mastery” required for fulfillment in my third chapter of life, the years between 60 – 90+. There is no doubt in my mind that the new awareness of my inevitable end has served to focus daily living. Questions seem to be arising with frequency.
What will it take to bring a sense of purpose, meaning, joy and peace to these days…all the way to the end?
What tasks, what practices, what changes, and what growth will be required in my outlook and my behavior for me to be at peace with my life and my living?
