Right timing in life

Right timing in life

I have learned that timing in human life is also about the place. Where I am in my life? Early childhood is about learning to walk, talk and think with help of concepts. There are common and differentiated themes for every human being in life. In my life I have had the possibility to listen to thousands of life stories (mostly working life). By listening those stories I learned a lot about myself and I was able to figure out that all people had to some extent same tendencies in life - really. I was able to connect these observations to the general laws of human life while studying the biography work later in my life.

Why I am today writing about this? I have been lately contemplating the right timing for me. At my age - I am on my 55th year at the moment I realise strongly that I am not anymore using my will power to accomplish things for my self; more knowledge, material possessions and "extreme" experiences. I have already done that - gained experience from outer world. So, what is left? There are several possibilities and I will summarise some of them here. If you are over 50 years old and have same kind of question about timing in your life - please comment.

  1. How do you give your life wisdom to others?
  2. Are there any universal human tasks coming your way and what are they? Or have you created new ones yourself?
  3. Do you have new goals, ideals or interests?
  4. Are you in balance with your moral and ethical values?
  5. Do you have spiritual or religious aspirations?
  6. How do you get along with young people or those younger than them?
  7. Is your life harmonious and balanced or is something missing?


Being over 50 years old means to me, that I try to seek opportunities where I can be in service to younger generations. Not in the way that I will tell how things should be done, but more or less asking the right questions. I am exited to see how the younger generation is gaining experience and building concrete things in the world. I am learning not to disturb this natural flow of co-creation - particularly if I am not asked any advice. Sometimes I am asked and at those moments I find out how much I would like to give direct answer. Fortunately the younger generation around me don't take direct advices. They prefer those good questions or I may tell some story about my life and experience which could give some light and perspective to the occurring situation.

There is a strong vibe of letting-go of achieving things in my life and yet I experience the best time of my life at the moment. I could get used to this. How about you?
