Unlocking Wisdom for Baby Boomers
The Baby Boomer Generation has seen dramatic shifts in culture, Technology, and social norms, witnessing the civil rights movement, the Vietnam War, and the advent of the digital age-all of which played crucial roles in shaping our worldviews, and, ultimately our wisdom. Now, as we transition into Retirement, we face unique challenges and opportunities, but Baby Boomers have a wealth of experiences that have formed our perspectives and given us a deep well of wisdom.
Wisdom is more than just knowledge or experience; it’s the ability to apply these elements with compassion and insight. At its core, wisdom involves making sound judgments and decisions based on a deep understanding of people, situations, and the broader context. It’s a quality that transcends mere intelligence, encompassing emotional intelligence, ethical reasoning, and a sense of perspective. Across different cultures, wisdom is often revered and associated with age, as life experiences are seen as essential in developing a wise outlook, which leads us to the Baby Boomer generation and our obligation to unlock our wisdom to help younger generations thrive.

To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Our society has a bad attitude about aging. This is well established. Youth gets the glory, old age seems gory. Most of the familiar, negative stereotypes about old age – feebleness, failing organs, decrepitude – are about the physical aspects. But a strong argument can be made that the aging process involves more than physical change. While our bodies are showing wear and tear, other non-physical traits are strengthening: pati…

I came across this quote by Muriel Rukeyser "All the poems of our lives are not yet made". When we retire, some of us want to continue to write the poems of our lives, but others only want to read the poems they have already written. Retirement is a time of reflection and renewal, a chance to honour the past while embracing the possibilities of the future. Yet, it’s easy to hold too tightly to what has been, forgetting that the road ahead is still full of untapped potential. I encourage you to embrace the following truth that all the poems of our lives are not yet made. There is still t…
