THE WHEEL OF A LIFETIME

THE WHEEL OF A LIFETIME

THE WHEEL OF A LIFETIME

(NE Infancy) Everything is brand new and there is a blur between the self and
others.There is also a sense of trust that we will be cared for.We are still
deeply connected to our parents.

(EAST Childhood) We become more independent from our families.Friends are of
great importance and we find a great many things we are interested in learning
and doing.

(SE Adolescence) We begin to be more independent from our families.Friends
become very important.We struggle with the uncertainties of who we are and what
we look like to others.

(SOUTH Young Adult) We finish our formal education and begin to settle into
jobs and perhaps marriage and a family.It is a buy time of caretaking,
establishing careers and community involvement.

(SW Middle Adulthood) We begin to take a look at our life and at how we can
bring to balance.There is often a shift of focus, perhaps from job to family or
form volunteer organizations to personal interests.

(WEST Middle Age) This is often a time when we discover that there are things
we are clinging to and need to release before we can move on; perhaps it is a
relationship, a job, a house or a grudge.

(NW Senior) Children are grown and retirement nears or begins.We find we take
more quiet contemplative time for ourselves.We see things more in perspective
and appreciate things we were too busy to notice before.

(NORTH Elder) We are grateful for what we have and what we have had in our
lives.We are more accepting of things and are able to guide others without
expectations of how they might use that guidance.

It is important to be aware that we reach these stages at different ages.Some
folks reach the South quite young with an early marriage and family.This may
force them into the care taking of the South before they have had the time to
really process the Southwest.Others take many years to sort out who they are in
the Southwest before they take their place in the South.
