Men's Point Of View - A Snapshot In Time (Paperback)


"Men's Point Of View" is a collection of interesting stories, observations and anecdotes from 34 individual men at their retirement age-in essence telling their life stories. It is a revealing book about men who could easily be our fathers or grandfathers. These men have wisdom, experience, and strength and lessons learned, gained from living their lives. They have ideas and truths to pass on to their families and to the community and world. They are an untouched resource for their families and the world. The book presents interviews of these men that are a snapshot in time of their lives. It is a follow-up on the author's previous book, "Voices Of Older Women," and aims to discover what retirement-aged men think about their lives, their family, the younger generation, men and women, careers and work, society, current affairs, retirement, and the personal stories about how they got where they are and what they have to say to the world. "Men's Point Of View also advocates the importance of the concept of "life review" as a means to not only tell our life stories but as a valuable tool to reconcile the pieces of our lives and live in peace with ourselves and those around us. We leave many things unsaid and undone in our lives and any steps we can take to reconcile those things with ourselves and others will ultimately make our lives-and the lives of those around us-better and more fulfilling. "Men's Point Of View" calls on men and their families to embrace their own life reviews as a positive, affirming experience.
