It was like Car-man going to Concours d'Elegance or Chef-man going on Top Chef. Hearing Harvard sociologist and much-acclaimed author Sara Lawrence-Lightfoot speak was like listening to the ultimate concert or a precisely-constructed poem for a "word person" like me.
Take these phrases and let your mind go wild:
"Arc of life and learning"
"Looking back and giving forward"
"Futuristic and transformational"
"Deep gladness meets the world's great hunger"
"Their stories became their compass"
"Season in search of a purpose"
"10,000 baby boomers turn 60 every day." (S L-L) The third chapter of life, between 50 and 75 years, is a period when we're neither young nor old, when we urgently need to get on with what we need to be.
