I am 47 and spouse 46 and we don't have kids . We have applied for adoption(taking time) but considering age , confused about whether to adopt and if not how to life with childlessness

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
A great way to be part of a child's/childrens lives is to support them. Playing games, teaching them a skill, even creating content as life lessons. A favourite uncle is a great position to have.
support in arranging picnics, birthday party help as a game event manager for neices and nephews also is another way.
writing stories for children or volunteering at local libraries will get lots of children to hear you.
Supporting children in NGO's is another way.

A suggestion to kindly consider is that parents are comfortable with 'trusted adults' who maintain 'personal bubble space' and follow 'safe and unsafe rules'. Go ahead and think of great fun games, children of all ages can and will connect if you have a playground near your home.

Ans: Adoption has its own legalities. Particularly age of the parent wanting adoption. This is to make sure the child adopted to be settled before the adopted parent retire.
Another option could be to be a Godfather and sponsor a child's education and lufe

Ans: The child to be born is coming from the different dimension
That spirit is deciding factor in drawing the time and space.When the time arrives
You will be ready mentally and physically
Sometimes taking these decisions too much into our mind is not healthy. Listening to the heart bring in peace
