Aging and Maturing
Aging in the Personal View is the experience of diminishing physical and mental capacity. Maturing in the Spiritual View is increasing awareness of wisdom.
Our thoughts of aging often express fear of the decline of our temporary physical life while the wisdom of maturing is the growing expression of the good of spiritual qualities.
Knowing this distinction gives us the choice every moment between the Personal View of aging and the Spiritual View of maturing. With the Spiritual View it is possible to enjoy the good here and now, regardless of our physical age.
