Publisher's Synopsis
Men can find it so difficult to open up and it seems the older they get the more closed they can become. Here is a book that breaks the mold, one man's journey which has common threads throughout pulling together in an awakening to life in middle age, an honest and reliable account of feelings and thoughts some we all can relate to and some perhaps not so much. Sometimes we all need a silent hand of support no matter what gene we relate to or what our perceived values of this vibration we call life might be, this book is deeply informative and brutally effective in opening our minds to some kind of mystic type wisdom found in the form of this normal everyday man as he approaches the age of fifty. Orwell absolutely nails it at times, yet at other instances he leaves us waiting, wanting and in need of more information but days or weeks later the pieces of the puzzle fall into place, proving that we all hold all of the answers when provoked by the correct thought seeds. I would summarise precisely this that he is a challenger of our inner thoughts kind of a modern day higher vibrational wizard. His experiences to date have taken him to where he is today, a recluse living what he calls the final years of this chapter of his life, who knows what is next. All I know is I hope that I can remain part of his future the way he has been part of my past for well over thirty three years now as he approaches his Fiftieth year in this world. We can all gain something from reading "South of Fifty" although it may be hard to put your finger on it until the penny drops. Mary Swagillion author & friend.
