''''Old,'''' he writes, ''''is just another word for nothing left to lose, a time to dive deep into life, not withdraw to the shallows.'''' But this book is not for elders only. It was written to encourage adults of all ages to explore the way their lives are unfolding. It's not a how-to-do-it book on aging, but a set of meditations in prose and poetry that turn the prism on the meaning(s) of one's life, refracting new light at every turn. From beginning to end, the book is laced with humor as well as gravitas - beautifully enhanced by three free downloadable songs from the gifted singer-songwriter Carrie Newcomer, written in response to themes in the book.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0369300688\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0369300688.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Palmer, Parker J.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
