But...To request an interview with Parker Palmer regarding I like being old because the view from the brink is striking, a full panorama of my life.” —Parker Palmer inParker Palmer takes us to the brink of a new life.
I never sang ‘cause I knew something, I sang because it was a prayer, The finest one that I could bare.
It is a slower life where we have the opportunity to observe and become aware of so much we missed in this world while we were living at a frantic pace: cardinals, dolphins, pelicans, humming birds, downy woodpeckers, Carolina Chickadees, the ocean, crocus, daffodils, old friends, the list goes on.
Parker J. Palmer is a writer and a man who has clearly earned the title of elder. Parker, now in his late seventies, has helped this guy in his early sixties think of my years ahead as 'triple wrapped in mystery.' In my twenties, his writing released the music within me. I like being old because the view from the brink is striking, a full panorama of my life.” —Parker Palmer in On the Brink of Everything: Grace, Gravity & Getting Older (Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Inc. 2018) pp.
And this is has been too much and little The ache of it bewildering.
1-2, Parker Palmer takes us to the brink of a new life. My father, Max J. Palmer, died at age 81 in 1994. 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 Interested in purchasing a larger quantity of books at once?
This is a book of immense gratitude, consolation, and praise. And he elders with such readability and humor! "~ VALARIE KAUR, civil rights activist, lawyer, filmmaker, and founder of the Revolutionary Love Project"One of the wisest people on the planet has written one of the finest books on growing b/old gracefully. In 2005, Drawing on eight decades of life – and his career as a writer, teacher, and activist – Palmer explores the questions age raises and the promises it holds.
""…a wondrously rich mix of reality and possibility, comfort and story, helpful counsel and poetry, in the voice of a friend.
I never sang ‘cause I knew something, I sang because it was a prayer, The finest one that I could bare. It's an honest wake-up chime, no matter where you are in your own time line, because somehow, these pages hold all of time—past and present, stirring together—refreshing the spirit. His latest book is a deep reflection on aging that offers a master's earned view of the large and the small, and how we're all vital threads woven together by life. Palmer reminds us of Benedict’s message of “keeping death daily before our eyes.’ In the meantime, we are to reach out and learn from the younger generation, move toward, not away from what we fear, and spend as much time as possible in the natural world.Finally, he reminds us of how essential humor is as we age, quoting William James: “common sense and a sense of humor are the same thing moving at different speeds.” This book is a generous gift to all of us—and to our attempts at a truly human civilization.
Founder and Senior Partner Emeritus of the Center for Courage & Renewal, he holds a Ph.D. in sociology from the University of California at Berkeley, thirteen honorary doctorates, two Distinguished Achievement Awards from the National Educational Press Association, and an Award of Excellence from the Associated Church Press.Palmer is the author of ten books—including several award-winning titles—that have sold over 1.5 million copies and been translated into ten languages: In 1998, a national survey of 10,000 educators named Palmer one of the thirty “most influential senior leaders” in higher education and one of the ten key “agenda-setters” of the decade.
Surprised by the fact that he likes being old, he writes, “Welcome to the brink of everything.
Here’s a book not only for elders but for those younger folks we call “old souls.”Ultimately, Palmer sees age as a precious gift. "Parker Palmer has been a mentor and midwife to countless people in my generation, including me. “I’ve lost the capacity for multitasking, but I’ve rediscovered the joy of doing one thing at a time. It was written to encourage adults of all ages to explore the way their lives are unfolding.
"But this book is not for elders only.
