I was listening to the manager of the impeachment trial today on CNN. He was a handsome gentleman of colour speaking eloquently to the senate about diversity as unifying force as opposed to one of divisiveness. He mentioned many aspects of this energy called diversity; race, ethnicity, region, religion, gender, sexuality. He did not mention age. Including age as a part of the richness of our diverse society is looking through a different lens. It is a paradigm shift from the negativity of ageism. How do you see age contributing to our culture?

Aging is an important connection for any culture. We can resolve our past and learn from others how to avoid undo hardship in the future. As I see myself aging, I am not too proud to listen to the advice of youngsters but also hope to contribute a sense of wholeness in the family where brokenness once estranged us from enjoying all that we are together.
