The Wisdom Years - Margaret Silf - diskuze

It’s time to retire, time to downsize, time to slow down and exit stage left. Does this mean becoming invisible, putting on the slippers and settling down in the rocking chair? Or is it perhaps the time to embrace the most fulfilling challenge of all – to mature inwardly into our wisdom years?This book explores some of the invitations that await us in these wisdom years: the harder things, like learning the art of slowing down and letting go, increasingly aware of our own mortality, and the joyful surprises, as our perspective changes and we glimpse more clearly the possibilities that the longer view reveals and the unexpected gifts that winter brings. It invites you to discover, and celebrate, your own wisdom years – to look at life from a new perspective, that of human being rather than human doing.Drawing on the experiences and wisdom learned from many years spent exploring her own spiritual journey, and accompanying others on theirs, Margaret Silf helps you to see afresh the signposts along the path of older age. They are pointers and invitations for us to discover the immense spiritual value of our later years and to recognise, harvest and share the fruits of a life well lived.
