When confronted by an existential crisis,
noted educator Marlene C. Holayter is drawn into a
journey of personal discovery. As she approaches
retirement, the author is compelled to find the
meaning, purpose, and value in her life. As she
delves into her own story, one door opens to
another, and soon she is exploring the stories of
others.
Drawing on interviews with over one
hundred people, Holayter examines how the
search for what matters, enriches life, and how
each decade becomes a crossroad for the next.
Through the lens of her own journey of growth,
the author reveals insights gleaned from the vast
and varied and yet, sometimes commonly shared
experiences of a wide range of people.
Wisdom is a Journey asks deep questions
about seeking guidance, the power of
connections, and the importance of empathy in
a complex world. By offering perspective
through these collected reflections and lived
lessons, Holayter's book is an opportunity to be
nurtured by others as you walk your own path
toward wisdom.
