Reciting poetry from his fifth volume, Everything Is Waiting for You, David Whyte talks about the difficult transitions that are part of every human life, when we are orphaned from the homes we have carefully constructed and must inhabit the world in a new way.
With a combination of poetry, lecture, and story, David shows how these transitions can be understood as opportunities to engage in a deeper conversation, one that allows us to catch up with the part of ourselves that is already standing on a new frontier.

David Whyte grew up with a strong, imaginative influence from his Irish mother among the hills and valleys of his father’s Yorkshire. He now makes his home in the Pacific Northwest of the United States. The author of twelve books of poetry and four books of prose, David Whyte holds a degree in marine zoology and has traveled extensively, including living and working as a naturalist guide in the Galapagos Islands and leading anthropological and natural history expeditions in the Andes, Amazon, and Himalaya. He brings this wealth of experience to his poetry, lectures, and workshops. David’s life as a poet has created a readership and listenership in three normally mutually exclusive areas: the literate world of readings that most poets inhabit, the psychological and theological worlds of philosophical inquiry, and the world of vocation, work, and organizational leadership.

David Whyte inspirational as always. I was a little disappointed by the awkward track breaks (download option, not CD). I think it would be better to have fewer, longer tracks with breaks selected very carefully.
