Reviews
"Parker Palmer's writing is like a high country stream-clear, vital, honest. If your life seems to be passing you by, or you cannot see the way ahead, immerse yourself in the wisdom of these pages and allow it to carry you toward a more attentive relationship with your deeper, truer self." -- John S. Mogabgab , editor, Weavings Journa "An exuberant and passionate book. I was deeply moved and I cannot,nor do I want to, shake off the haunting questions that it raises for me. This book penetrates the soul, and it will definitely stir you to explore more of your own inner territory. What an extraordinary achievement." -- Jim Kouzes , coauthor, The Leadership Challenge and Encouraging the Heart; chairman, Tom Peters Group/Learning Systems "At a time when our culture is seeking a new language for expressing the spirit in everyday life, Parker Palmer is our leading voice of clarity and wisdom. In Let Your Life Speak, Palmer continues to deepen our ways of understanding the relationships between the inner life of spirit and the outer life of action." -- Rob Lehman , president, The Fetzer Institute "In our search for authentic vocation, this book should be the starting point and deserves a prominent place in every home, school, and college. It is vintage Parker Palmer, providing his unique insight to the interconnectedness of selfhood and vocation with eloquence and personal experience." -- Doug Orr , president, Warren Wilson College

Highly Recommended Book
Parker Palmer offers a wonderful guide for finding your true, fulfilling vocation instead of just a job. This is a great book for a young adult who is floundering with life, wondering what he/she will find fulfilling. Highly recommended book!

NOT WHAT I EXPECTED
Some people will enjoy this book. There were things I liked about the content. The author gives too many opinions as if they were facts. I also detected too much of his political ideology in this book. I commend him on being transparent about his journey through clinical depression. I read the entire book. There were moments when I had enough, but I felt there were compelling reasons to finish the book. I just had to take what I could use, and leave the rest.

Finding our true selves in life
Parker Palmer's analysis of how we find our true vocation in life (based on his life and others who found theirs a different way) is fascinating and thought-provoking. The chapter on WHEN WAY CLOSES (based on the Quaker axiom WAY WILL OPEN) opened my eyes to how even the painful and shameful the closing of doors can be even more enlightening than the opening of them, which looking forward can be difficult to discern. I am ordering another of his books, as well as the Collected Poems of May Sarton, which he quotes from.

Embrace Gifts and Limits Alike!
While it is affirming to hear that we need to find callings that match our gifts, it is positively liberating to hear that, "It's okay to have limits! and it's okay to move away from callings that is squarely on our limits!" I think that's the biggest message I took away the first reading of this book. It's a difficult message to derive on my own in a competitive society, in which we always seek to improve, change, and at worst, cover up our limits so that we may appear as "gifted" as the next. But here, Parker Palmer is suggesting that ... stop ... let your gifts be gifts and limits be limits. Your limits can guide you to and away from callings just as capably as your gifits will. It's an uplifting message, like many of Parker Palmer's other books.

A Path to Vocational Discovery
Overall, this is a very good book. This book was recommended by an insightful member on my ordination track committee. I was able to focus on where God was leading me instead od the path that I wanted to go. Choosing Gods way is much easier but will require just as much work. The thing that I found not favorable was his constant back peddling to his depression part of his journey. First three chapters were his best. Thanks
