This is Part 4 of Ronnie's latest series of talks entitled: "Simplify. Simplify." Ronnie talks about the "seasons of life" in this talk (Psalm 90), specifically two seasons, the two halves of life. In the first half, we are striving. We are working on our edifice, our image, the container of life. We seek accomplishment. We seek our people, our place. We have much to prove; demonstrating to ourselves, to our parents, to our peers, to the culture - that we are worthy. The second half of life is about substance and the depth of the inner life. Now, it is about the content of my soul - not just the container around that soul. One turns to what really matters. Carl Jung, who coined this  idea of first and second half living sums it up thusly: “The first half of life is devoted to all that is outward, to the ego; the second half is about going inward and letting go of your pride.”
