Let Your Life Speak: Listening for the Voice of Vocation, by Parker J. Palmer is a wonderful book to read if you are considering changes at midlife. It's also a great book that may affirm some of your vocational choices.

Palmer believes all of us are born with gifts that lead us to our blessed vocation only when we take the time to be still and uncover those gifts.

Often people race through life doing what they think everyone else wants them to do, or taking the next step/opportunity thrown at them.

Our vocation becomes centered with who we are at the core when we tap into our God given gifts and use them for His glory . One of the reasons this rarely happens is due to the rat race. Poeple never take time to be still, reflect, and dig deep within.

Great book! Humble man.
