Confucius discovered the I Ching in his 60s or 70s. It is never too late to discover treasure.

Confucius (551–479 BCE) offered much wisdom to China and the world. Among that wisdom are the Ten Wings commentaries on the I Ching that are attributed to him. The core text of the I Ching dates to around 1000–750 BCE.

This chronology means that Confucius could have been aware of the I Ching throughout his life. Yet it is thought by some that he might have only discovered and paid attention to the I Ching when he was in his 60s or 70s.

This should come as great news to all of us, even if we are not Confucius. There is always time, as long as we are around, to discover treasure, some of which may be right in front of us. With some limitations, it is never too late.
