You do well to consider the benefits of age. Age can open opportunities for breadth and depth of understanding. But it's not automatic, and there are many ways to redeem the benefits.
I've spent much of my seven decades making wrong turns, pursuing false hopes, and generally getting things wrong. I am familiar with Carl Teichrib and his work. A good deal of what he has investigated is familiar to me, not because I did what he did, but because I blundered into it and was deceived. Over time I would recognize that this particular thing wasn't "it", learn my lessons, and move on to the next blunder. I like Carl's approach a lot better, and I now apply what I have learned the hard way to avoiding more such blunders, but either approach, or a combination, can lead toward maturity.
Some of those blunders involved various New Age deceptions -- I see you writing about that -- but roughly as many involved "the church" and its corruption and deceptions, and I see you writing about that too. The work I am presently doing seems to revolve around the latter, and its effects on the people in my life and on the struggling church that I have hesitantly belong to for the last 2 1/2 years, a Reformed church of all things (not my idea, but it's where the "road signs" pointed). It helps very much to hear from others that directly address these matters. There don't seem to be that many. Please keep on writing.
That's great, I've not met many people familiar with Carl Teichrib's work since he does so much behind the scenes. If you want to share some of your experiences I'm always curious. God bless you.
I'll have to think about what might be suitable for sharing. I was pretty bad. And one of the groups I was with for years is still around and active on Substack, and there's an NDA that I honor. I don't agree with them now in many things (many other things proved true), but I do appreciate what I learned there, even if it's not exactly what they meant to convey.
I do realize the importance of taking things one day at a time. Maximizing the amount of feasible output that you can muster up. It is truly rewarding to ruminate on before sleeping. I have structured spontaneity, which has been 'working' for me thus far.
The Kingdom is called "a kingdom" for a reason. Multifacted and various purposes and positions to fill. We train for the role that God assigns us. As a knight, don't look to the regal and say, "This envoy has made peace on our behalf, and I swing a sword." Even the swing of the sword is done for the beloved kingdom in which you serve.
