Each phase of life presents us with its own unique opportunity to connect with God and to bless those around us – even, and perhaps especially, in those later decades when careers, raising kids, and mortgage payments are behind us. So argues Ronald Rolheiser one of the great spiritual writers of our time. During life’s years, we embark on a search for meaning and discover in ourselves a profound, unquenchable thirst for the Divine. And when we reach adulthood, we realize that we are called to give our lives away – to our spouses, children, careers, friends and neighbors in need. But in the end, we must learn to let it all go.
