Mary Pipher Quote
When transitions happen and identities change , one of our greatest challenges is to find a new sense of meaning and purpose in our lives. That sounds simple, but it isn't easy. As my doctor brother observed when he retired for health reasons, You can just go out and buy a pound of purpose....We construct meaning when we chose what to do, how to help, and what stories to tell ourselves.
