hillman and aging




Hillman states several grand points about aging. In a society without much help and teaching on aging, these concepts are like water to the thirsty.


Some points that stood out to me:


Life breaks us all.
Grandparents often exude confidence, while parents can exude worry.
The night is a place to live.
I like to think of the process as having meaning.
