Supporting You in Your Desire to Change
by Michael Feeley
Some gifts are a complete surprise. This is one of them. Ann Sheybani — master editor, author, and owner of Summit Press Publishers – helped me discover the book I didn’t yet know I had inside me — wrote this tribute and shared it publicly. I am moved and profoundly grateful for her generous care. […]

A Swedish sociologist, Lars Tornstam, spent decades studying what happens to people as they age. What he found surprised the academic world. Aging, he argued, is not decline. It is expansion. A natural, profound shift from ego-driven living toward something deeper, wider, and more soulful. He called it gerotranscendence. I respect his work enormously. And, […]

We treat archaeology as one of the most respected professions in the world. It is patient work. Precise work. Work done with reverence for what is being uncovered. No rushing. No bulldozers. No damage to the tiniest particle that might complete the picture. What if you brought that same discipline to yourself? Self-archaeology is The […]

There is a philosophy I live by. I call it Sagerism. It begins with a refusal to say I’m old. I’m getting too old. Age is not kind. Ageing is tough. Not because those words are entirely untrue — but because they are merely incomplete. They tell only half the story. And the half they […]

Look closely at a tapestry. Not from a distance, where you see the whole image — the landscape, the color, the grand design. Get close. Close enough to see the individual threads. Each one travels its own path across the fabric. Each one is distinct. And yet not one of them holds without the others […]

There are two ways the world says you should age. The first costs a fortune. Fillers, surgery, the multi-billion dollar industry built on one money-making premise: your face is a problem to be solved. Change the outside. Erase the evidence. Look like someone younger who hasn’t lived what you’ve lived. (Interesting it’s called plastic surgery.) […]

There’s a story society loves to tell about aging. It goes like this: you peak, you plateau, you fade. You have your moment, and then you make room. Step back. Let the younger ones through. I don’t believe that story. And neither do some of the most extraordinary people who ever lived. I call them […]

Most people simply arrive at their age. They don’t think about earning it. They wake up one morning and the number is just there — handed to them by the calendar, unremarkable, unearned. Something that happened to them rather than something they chose and worked at. Sagers know the difference. In 1947, Welsh poet Dylan […]

Look around you. Not at what is new and clamoring for your attention. Look at what has stayed. What has endured. What people return to, preserve, treasure, and pass forward with a kind of quiet, profoundly moving reverence that the brand new rarely earns. The world, when you look at it this way, is full […]

If you are a Vintager — someone only getting better with age, accumulating life experience, skills, loss, love, and hard-won wisdom for decades — you may have noticed something lately – ideas are coming faster. The connections between things are suddenly obvious. A conversation sparks a thought that sparks another, and before coffee is finished, […]
