The gifts of growing older

“Aging brings out the flavors of a personality. The individual emerges over time, the way fruit ripens. Wisdom takes up residence in our thoughts. Our ideas, formerly light, rambling, and unrelated, gather into values and a philosophy, giving our lives substance and firmness.” – Thomas Moore, Care of the Soul
“Today, I give thanks for the gifts of growing older. Reflective insights, confidence, and calm bring authenticity and gladness to my experience. My life is precious, anchored in faith and kindness, and connected to others. Today, I commit to being a beneficial presence.” – Rev. Scott
