As we approach the end of our lives, our outside world may become smaller but our interior world can grow very large.
In our elder years, we have the chance to experience a deeper freedom in our heart, mind and spirit.
Outer things and people fall away and we learn to be with ourselves in a whole new way.
We may also be dealing with sickness and decline; but still we have opportunities for growth in our awareness.
We can dive in to complete unfinished emotional repair, releasing old pain, hurts and regrets.
We can choose to know true forgiveness.
Self acceptance calls to us at very deeper level.
Our minds are quieter; and unnecessary internal noise is easier to dismiss.
We are free to unleash our creativity.
We engage in activism and service.
We have renewed energy to play, appreciate beauty, and know gratitude.
Our spiritual path strengthens and deepens.
I don't mean its easy or even simple. I mean its messy and complex and hard and so worth it.
We are preparing our selves for the next big thing.
And on our way, we experience an amazing peace.
