What Is Active Wisdom?
The phrase was coined by Mary Catherine Bateson.
She tells us that this phrase describes how we can be in the stage of life that falls roughly between the years of 55 and 70.
She tells us that this is not a time of getting old; it is a time of active engagement.
These years, she says, provide a time to reflect on what you have already done
knowing that it is not too late to do something more or different.
We are, she says, our most talented and skilled at this stage of life and
hopefully wiser than ever before.
What then, she asks, will we do with this wisdom?
If you are curious to create conversation about this question please contact me.
There is a whole new world outside our window just waiting to be explored.
