Show Notes

Experience isn't everything, but it turns out to be quite a lot. Even in the space of a day we can learn so much and come to a place where future opportunities and challenges can be more skilfully navigated, for the lessening of our suffering and the blooming of our hopes. Yet it seems we today are strangely out of touch with this fact, for no longer do the eldest among us command the greatest status and respect in society; instead replaced by the cult of fame, wealth and power. Admittedly, we nowadays seem to have many more elderly and seniors than true elders – much to our detriment – and yet this episode advocates a return to greater appreciation of and consideration for those of us richer in age than in youth.
