  • Summary

  • It was that prolific and prescient playwright, George Bernard Shaw, who stated that “youth is wasted on the young.” He expanded on that in later writings: “they're brainless, and don't know what they have; they squander every opportunity of being young, on being young.”

    While this may sound petty and rather mean, Shaw inadvertently makes a larger point. Life cannot be comprehended until it is lived.

    It’s only then that we begin to glean some sense and reason to living. That’s when we can finally understand what we’ve done, how we’ve done it, how we could have done it better, and see a path forward that begins to deliver what we’ve always been looking for – meaning, purpose, and satisfaction.

    Our guest this week on The Art 2 Aging, Paul Long, exemplifies this formula. He’s been there, done that, and is now, in his late 60s, creating his life on his own terms.
