What a curious title: What Aging Men Want. Don't they just want to retire, play golf, fish, travel, volunteer, watch sports and see the grandkids? What more could they want? And anyway, don't most retired guys say they're busier and happier than ever? After carefully interviewing forty men I knew [...]

I had the distinct honor and pleasure to attend the Sage-ing Conference this fall in Colorado. I was amazed how long many of these Elders have promoted Conscious Aging and I only discovered this through the Reb Zalman book we started last spring.

2016-06-20T23:46:31+00:00

It seemed that everywhere I turned men were articulating and documenting their instructions, values and requests. In August of 2003, it was Aaron Brown introducing a feature on CNN’s NewsNight about the rescued coal miners – with excerpts from letters written a century ago by “doomed miners” to their wives and [...]
