in love with his speech

The older people get the harder they hold on to the sum of their life experiences. Happiness isn’t in dodging the ups and downs of our daily lives. It is found in being at peace in the journey. Recognizing that you have been afflicted with tragedy later in life can give you permission to let go, forgive, or move on. You have to choose not to allow the new story created by this event to define how you move ahead. Keep listening. I address this in future episodes.

Just listened to Episode 1. And I understand how tragedy at young age could set the stage to propel one to success. But what happens when your tragedy occurs at age 53? What would you say to someone who is middle aged? Everything seems so much harder when you are older!!
