Integrity vs. Despair
In stage eight, Integrity vs. Despair, elders who are in their late 60’s and up will reflect on their life. In this stage most people are living the retired life and have more time to think about their previous years. Elders will look at their life with both pride and satisfaction or see it as unproductive. People who have completed all their stages successfully and do not feel guilt when reflecting will have a wonderful retired life. Those that view their life, as a waste because of unsettling events and guilty actions will feel failure in stage eight.
When I am in stage eight, hopefully I will be able to look back at my life with pride and not regret any previous actions. Because I will be satisfied with my life, I will be a very amusing and loving person. Also I hope that I will have many grandchildren that I can spoil with love and cookies. In my free time, I will travel all around the world with my loving husband and enjoy all that life has to offer
