Overview

This is a book for those of any age who are ready to reevaluate, refresh and renew their possibilities, their purpose, and their choices. A gentle guide, and a prompt for reflection. A book to read over and over, with real life examples, many from the Pioneer Valley of Massachusetts.

The author, Martha Johnson,72, a South Hadley native, loved her life of doing a variety of things that mattered to her. Having received an unwelcome diagnosis multiple sclerosis in her professional prime, she again faced the title question, this time in print, both for herself, and as encouragement for the rest of us.

“Rich with insight, illuminating exercises, down-to-earth guidance, and inspiring anecdotes, Martha Johnson leads us on a journey to the wellspring of self-knowledge and inspiration residing in our own hearts and souls. If you have ever dreamed of being paid to do what you love, if you have ever yearned to use your talents to help make a better world, I urge you to read this book and follow its gentle guidance. It can deliver on its promise – to bring you to the place inside yourself where mysterious powers lay waiting to be discovered, powers that can help you create the life you have always dreamed of living.” –Tom Monte, bestselling writer, including Unexpected Recoveries and co-author of Taking Woodstock.
