"Each of us is at an incredible crossroads of creation which will never ever appear again. So everything is waiting for you in the way it's never ever waited for anything else, not because you're incredibly special but because you are yourself. Will you pay attention? Will you look? Will you hear? Will you see, no matter how difficult it is to do that? Will you appear on life's radar screen?" David Whyte has the poet's gift of taking us deep into the most intimate moments of life and noticing the details most of us miss, the details that make us truly alive. His willingness to expose his vulnerability gives us courage to engage our own. In this quiet dialogue he reveals his broad range of vision, from his raw account of the final hours before his mother's death, to the role each of us plays in the evolution of our species. Through it all he asks the most vital questions, and reminds us why we are called to be fully present to each and every moment, engaging the conversation with life. Available as cd, audio tape and transcript.
