Conscious Aging: Accepting Last Things

As we age, move into what is sometimes called the second phase of adulthood (moving out of career and family building), we may become aware of things we are leaving behind or have left behind; accepting and appreciating impermanence is an important aspect of conscious aging.

I enjoyed your talk on last times. It made me reflect on some last times and made me realize there are so many more things to do that something has to be the last time so that other things can be enjoyed

It is both crazy & necessary to think about the last time we might do something or go somewhere. I have been struggling with this. I couldn't find a way to consider the reality without feeling deep and. It's so great to find a person who is thinking about these times in our life and stages in our living & I found the talk & poem helpful - soothing & supportive. Thank you x

Where I am now at 62..in a different country..away from all I knew..letting go and accepting ..this poem is beautiful and reassuring .Thank you.

Such a beautiful realization and awareness for reflection. Thank you! I am at peace.

I turned 71 this month, I really needed to hear your message. We take so much for granted. I look forward to living this new phase of my life.... slowly, noticing more, appreciating more.
