Human life is divided into stages. Today's societies perceive an old age as an unproductive period of life. The cult of youth and vital forces which seem to determine the value of human life, tends to marginalize elderly people. Therefore it is crucial to remind the contemporary world that the elderly (lay people or priests) also take an active part in shaping today's world. Old people's life experience and wisdom are of invaluable help to the young who have no experience. Consequently, it seems necessary to discover the beauty of this stage of life.
