Nokomis Seniors news
Bus tour to Rosthern
On Wednesday, July 18th, Winston Felske, Lylie Herman, Marvin Gilbertson, Dave
and Susan Smith, Carol Wright, Anne Fines, Theresa Lakness, Shirley Kirk, Irene
Proseilo, Shirley Birtles, Ross Reynolds, and I boarded the Nokomis Legion Bus for a
trip to Rosthern. Winston did a very capable job of piloting the bus.
In Rosthern, we enjoyed a live performance of “Prairie Nurses”, a play about two
Filipino nurses arriving in 1960’s small-town Saskatchewan, and the ensuing confusion,
comedy, and romance. The show was held at the Station Art Centre. They hold a
different show every July, and their last show this year is on August 5th.
On the return trip we stopped for supper at the Wagon Wheel restaurant in
Warman, SK. It was great day trip and everyone had an enjoyable time.
-Ilene Harding, Nokomis
Emotional Growth in
Mid-Life Not Unusual
for Women
It is quite common for women to
experience an emotional growth spurt
in the mid-life years. There may be
many reasons for this. It might be that
the children are a little older, and she
has time to think again. Or it might be
that she feels a little more independent.
Perhaps, once the childbearing is done,
she has a burst of creative energy.
Whatever the reason, she is often in a
learning mode that may seem insatiable.
She may begin to do a lot of reading,
writing, or perhaps she takes some classes.
This is all very exciting for her. She
keeps thinking of more things that she
wants to do. Her partner, however, may
not share her excitement. He may feel
a little threatened, for it may seem like
she is turning into someone else, right
before his eyes. She may seem to have
less time for him. Other things seem
more important.
At some point she may begin to worry
that she might be leaving her partner
behind. He must start to grow too, she
reasons. Thus, begins her attempt to
interest him in her newfound path. She
may share what she is learning, and that
sharing may slowly begin appearing as a
thinly veiled attempt to teach.
The partner, sensing this, may begin
to resist. He might argue with the points
she is making; put down or discredit
what she is learning, or simply refuse
to discuss it. If he won’t participate in
discussions, she decides that she will
give him some books to read. Perhaps
an “expert” will have more credibility.
He might be interested, but he also may
leave the books right where she left
them on the coffee table. She interprets
his refusal to join in her journey as an
unwillingness to work together to make
the relationship better. She is so excited
by her own growth and thinks how
wonderful it would be if they could share
in the growing process. Instead, they
seem to be drifting
farther apart. What
now? Well, she is
right about one
thing. If one partner
is growing and the
other is not, that
can certainly create
problems in the relationship.
However,
not growing is not an
option once the urge
is there. You cannot
discourage someone
from new learning
PSYCHOLOGY
FOR LIVING
GWEN
RANDALL-YOUNG
when their heart is pulling them in that
direction.
If you try, they will only become
depressed and resentful. The only
way to keep pace with someone who
is having a growth spurt is to do some
growing yourself. The key is to grow in
an area that excites YOU. You do not
have to become an expert in everything
she is learning. In fact, if you are both
learning different things, then there is
more to share. Conversations are more
stimulating. The relationship becomes
more passionate. It is important that you
each have respect for the other’s area
of growth. A partner may feel that it is
unfair to be nudged towards growth.
He may feel that she married him the
way he was, and he shouldn’t have to
change. The important point is that she
wouldn’t put the effort into encouraging
his growth if she didn’t really love him
and want to be with him. You stagnate
at your own risk. Instead of fighting her
push towards growth, embrace it as a
wake-up call. It is all too easy to sleepwalk
through life, but if you fall asleep in
the middle, you’ll miss the best part.
