It s a journey to find greater personal meaning, come to grips with the fact that we aren t going to live forever, take greater responsibility for our actions, and recognize that the answers must come from within . I see other men and women joining me in mid-life, living and working in ways that expand their generative capacity. We re making choices that lead us to experiences that are both life affirming and larger than ourselves. For me this has meant making difficult decisions about how I can maintain an authentic presence, make new commitments to others and myself, and as I mentioned in my earlier article, stay focused on seven generations to come . I ve become comfortable with what I know and have moved far past the need to know.
Reality is created in every moment.
Every now and then I get a glimpse of myself just being. Its only a moment, and it seems full of possibility. And for now, that is enough. The chatter of voices and the tumult of noise slowly gives way. We move into the circle finding our places.
