To be human is to age. To age well is to transition. To transition well is to adapt. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Ron Messner and Lori Wiegand encourage us to be intentional in the aging process. In so doing, we find abundance of life where scarcity may have been assumed.

Show notes:

Finding abundance instead of scarcity in the last third of life is a function of intentionality, acceptance, and adaptation.

  1. Intentionality:

    • Making healthy choices.

    • Having needed conversations.

    • Making future plans.

  1. Acceptance:

    • Making peace with new realities.

    • Letting go of old norms.

    • Letting go of old possibilities.

  1. Adaptation:

    • Finding a new identity.

    • Welcoming new norms.

    • Finding new possibilities.
