What do the stories and experiences we collect throughout our lives reveal about who we are as we grow older?
In this episode of Honestly Aging, we're joined by writer and Friends Life Care member David H. Sanders, whose creative life has taken many forms. From writing and editing to theater, film, music, and the visual arts, curiosity has been a constant thread throughout David's life.
David reflects on his childhood in a large Quaker family, including several formative years living in Kenya, and how those experiences stayed with him for decades before eventually helping inspire his novel Basura Road. He also shares what led him to transform one of his short stories into the short film The New Moon in the Old Moon's Arms, a deeply personal story about a son caring for his father with dementia.
That story was shaped in part by David's own experience helping care for his father. He reflects on watching his father’s memory and abilities change while recognizing that, at his core, he was still the same person David had always known and loved.
David also shares how creativity continues to play an important role in his life today and why he believes it is never too late to try something new. For him, growing older means continuing to stay curious, active, connected, and open to what comes next.
From the memories that stay with us to the relationships and creative pursuits that continue to shape us, this conversation explores the stories we carry throughout our lives and how they can take on new meaning as we grow older.
