Despite the limitations that come as the body wears down, Mark Nepo believes that there are many gifts to inhabit by aging. So much is gained and so much is shed along the way. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As Mark began to reflect on the gifts and challenges of this process we're all immersed in, he realized, more than ever, that we are called to live a creative life as we age. We are led to what the Chinese call \"the fifth season\"--that moment in late summer when the glare of the sun fades so that we can see clearly the true colors around us. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Fifth Season\u003c\/i\u003e offers Mark's wise and gentle insights on growing older, helping readers identify the second half of life as a turning point, a time of integration and transformation that guides us in making sense of our experiences. All seasons lead to this season; all experiences lead to this understanding of experience. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn truth, Mark writes, we each must face living and dying from the inside of the one life we are given. But we can share the journey, which is the purpose of this book, to be a companion in your effort to enter the fifth season of your life.","brand":"Bookshelf Bliss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58151765705036,"sku":"BDDF_SKUxADghSEGGYcrkFSP","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1012\/4502\/6636\/files\/fifth-season-creativity-in-the-second-half-of-life-6797629.jpg?v=1784761577","url":"https:\/\/skihosevx.com\/products\/fifth-season-creativity-in-the-second-half-of-life","provider":"skihosevx","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
