causes - truth to self, truth to others, recognition of and interaction with the 'other', (those who are strangers to us or our way of life)...
Those of us who are getting a bit older and who have evolved in our thinking through the years, (and I have to believe there are a lot of us), owe it to our families, friends and the world at large to pass along the acquired knowledge. We should do this in the form of ideas, suggestions or just in the handing down of experiences.
Most will listen politely. After all we do deserve the respect of our years. Hopefully, we will be able to speak in such a way that they will actually listen, and maybe learn from our experience instead of making the same mistakes we have made.
I am doing more of this lately and am receiving what I think are positive reactions. It is satisfying to me and may actually be doing some good. I can only hope.
