Periodically, we need to review and revision our life. Every decade of the life cycle brings new challenges, goals, pleasures, and horizons. Every change—divorce, illness, tragedy, success, failure, retirement—requires us to make a new beginning, take stock of our past, and look for a new vision for the future. If you are ready to take a deep look into your life—and make some changes—this workshop is for you. Through talks, group work, and other experiential exercises, we explore a variety of questions, including: - Where are you in your life cycle?
- What promise or purpose is waiting to be realized?
- What has not happened yet?
- What have you not done? Been? Experienced?
- What have you given? Whom have you loved?
- What needs to be grieved, forgiven, and forgotten?
- What will your legacy be?
