An Evening with David Whyte on Whidbey Island
Thresholds:
Navigating the Difficult Transitions of Life
Every new epoch in the life of an individual or a society announces itself through difficulty, confusion or a sense of losing anchorage. To navigate this threshold we must find a deep, internal solid ground to maintain a conversation with the intangible, the numinous, and the just about to happen. Through humor, commentary and the insights of poetry, David Whyte will look at the part of us that can in fact go ahead, even amidst uncertainty and difficulty, to move beyond the boundaries of a small defended self into a larger more generous participation with the world.
Poet, author and philosopher David Whyte will give a rare Whidbey Island appearance at Langley United Methodist Church on Thursday, January 26th at 7pm. A long time Langley resident, David has been bringing his own and others poetry to large audiences around the world for over 25 years, using a unique combination of poetry, deep insight and humor to illuminate what it means to be fully here and fully human.
All proceeds to The Hub, a gathering place for youth on Whidbey Island.
