Spiritual Growth Articles

MidLife Wisdom.

"Your vision will become clear
only when you look into your heart."
~Carl Jung 

This month, our Feature Articles are exploring the topic of "MidLife Wisdom." Our participating authors provide us with profound insights and wisdom for making midlife the best part of our lives, as they remind us that our midlife years can be filled with great hope, clarity, and possibility. As a society, we have been conditioned to associate the word "crisis" with our middle-age years. But, gratefully, our authors help us break this myth for good, proving that midlife is nothing short of a joyous awakening of sprit--an opportunity to honor the wisdom in our hearts, and create the rest of our lives with purpose and passion.

Author Barbara Biziou sums up midlife beautifully. She says, "This is a time to reinvent ourselves and make new choices based on what we truly want. It is time to take stock of our lives, reevaluate our dreams and goals as we make peace with what we haven’t done and take steps towards our new expanded vision. The challenge is to look at the changing energy with anticipation. We can throw away the roles that do not serve and open to ones that contain more freedom to be ourselves."

May your midlife years be filled with clarity, purpose, and passion!
