The Pilgrim Season: Finding Your Real Self in Retirement

Description

Retirement is a unique milestone in our life journey, bringing new adventures to some, and dread, feelings of worthlessness, and even a lack of desire to continue living to others. Retired Episcopal priest and author Roger O. Douglas invites the reader to face these dilemmas head-on, imploring us to discover the self that exists outside of our work life-our real self. By reflecting on who we really are, retirement becomes a grand opportunity to experience new life.
