This book was chosen for my monthly Bible study group. In a nutshell, the author encourages readers to let go of the rigid, achievement-oriented mindset of the first half of life to enter a new phase in retirement.Â
The book had quite a few gems of wisdom:
"We grow spiritually much more by doing it wrong than by doing it right."
"Pass the lessons learned on to others - or there has been no real gift at all."
My biggest complaint with the book is the pace is slow, and it was not the easiest to comprehend.Â

Anything written or spoken by Fr. Richard Rohr worthy of your time. I highly recommend this book, particularly those in their 'second half' of life.
