WE ARE ALL GETTING OLDER
Over the next 4 weeks (I think) I will be taking a look at into something that is happening to us all, every day of every week, of every month of every year. It is something that all of us do.....we get older!
In my personal case the children are now adults who have got their lives sorted, they have built their own group of adult friends, established themselves in their careers and they have built their own groups of friends and generally they are standing on their "own two feet"
This progression means that (not just Alison and I) as parents we begin to feel increasingly distant from our families.(of course they should not be living in our pockets).
So for me personally I have a wonderful wife (Alison) a daughter who still lives at home (although she is an independent woman in her own right) and another daughter who is married and has two adult "children" of her own.
One day (it comes to everyone) we realise that our life is becoming less hectic than it used to be and we are seeing less and less of the friends we used to have There can of course be many reasons for this but primarily the causes are relocation, ill health, financial constraints and the like!
The real truth here is that the older we get the isolated we become unless we elect to do something about it.
There is a something that we can do to change this - research has indicated that we tell ourselves a number of lies and these untruths prevent us from having the best relationships that keep growing and prospering.
Let me ask you a question:-
Do you ever meet someone in the street and during the conversation you say something like "it has been so long since we last met...... we really must get together soon!"
BUT THEN THE MONTHS FLY BY!!
Please join me next week for part 2 of this piece.
If you find that these points have raised any questions please feel free to drop them to me in an email - devonlifecoach@mail.com
So until the next time have a fantastic week and I will speak to you again soon.
