Aging With Ignatius
Applying the spiritual exercises in the later stages of life
When
I retired after a career as a lawyer and a judge, I found myself
confronting questions of identity and choice. Overnight, I went from
feeling respected to feeling practically invisible. Who am I? What
should I do? Facing these questions led me back to principles of
Ignatian spirituality that I had first encountered in the Spiritual Exercises
of St. Ignatius many years earlier. These reflections, in turn,
convinced me that St. Ignatius has much to say to older adults as we
embark on a new stage of the spiritual journey.
