Some Thoughts on Becoming Eighty-Five

The experience of long life and spiritual fruits of aging are the focus of this meditative walk through eighty-five years of William Shetter's life experience: among Friends, in relationship, as an ongoing seeker and keen observer of the world. Reflections on death, impermanence, and increasing physical limitation are leavened with humor and a sense of play as Shetter examines the decades of his life. These thoughts on family, wisdom, humor, spiritual community, and the presence of God bring to the reader a distinctively Quaker perspective on the patterns of life and aging. Discussion questions are included to aid further reflection. -- Publisher's description.
