A Time To Seek

Meaning, Purpose, and Spirituality at Midlife

De: Susan Pohlman

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

With wisdom, reverence, and grace, Susan Pohlman delivers a lyrical meditation on midlife and motherhood while traveling the cobblestoned streets of Florence, Genoa, and Rome. A Time to Seek is a must for those navigating the empty nest or a period of personal transition. As the trip unfolds, Pohlman shares how travel moments can be used as opportunities for prayer, contemplation and spiritual growth. Various settings stir feelings and issues that speak to the concerns and hidden fears of everyday women. A climb to the top of the Duomo in Florence inspires a discussion on faith, the expansive view from the Piazza di Michelangelo broadens perspective, helping her daughter settle into an apartment for a semester abroad raises fears about letting go, and trips on the train become metaphors for life’s journeys. A return to the beautiful coastal village of Nervi, the setting of her first book, Halfway to Each Other, prompts deeper introspection about love, marriage and the passing of time. And finally, an evening tour of St. Peter’s Basilica provides the insight to take all of the trip’s lessons and make sense of them in a way that brings peace and a sense of excitement for the next chapter of life.
