So teach us to number our days
that we may get a heart of wisdom. 
― PSALM 90:12

AT THE AGE OF SEVENTY-NINE, Pope St. John Paul II wrote a letter to the “ dear elderly people of all languages and cultures” as encouragement in the autumn of their lives. It was also a moment of personal reflection as he faced his imminent arrival to eternity: “ from life to life!”

Stephen Gabriel has taken the pope’ s words and advice to heart. This book is his shared perspective on how to effectively adopt a proper state of heart and mind during the retirement years. He addresses the Lord’ s call to both give and receive: give of your time, talent, and welling wisdom, while opening yourself to fully receive the graces the Lord wishes to bestow. Count on Gabriel’ s own wisdom to give you both a spiritual and practical means by which you can live these years vibrantly.
