Book Reviews of Settling In: My First Year in a Retirement Community

Book Review: Settling In
Summary: 5 Stars

We moved to a retirement community two months ago. Our daughter suggested this book which we purchased through Amazon. Reading it caused a lot of laughter since we recognized some of the other and our resident types. We are experiencing the initial phase of euphoria at the present time. We showed the book to the administrative staff and they are considering ordering it for residents.
Enjoyed the book very much.

Summary of Settling In: My First Year in a Retirement Community

SETTLING IN is a collection of meditations that came from the journal of Richard Morgan when, at age 74, he moved to a retirement community in Pennsylvania. Reflecting on his experience, the author identified three major stages in his spiritual journey: - Initial excitement and euphoria - Second thoughts and regrets - Discerning his life in the community. These meditations will help those who are considering entering a continuing care/retirement community and for the adult children and caregivers of persons facing such a decision. The author's generous sharing of his own experience will help prepare those considering a life transition and also help their loved ones to understand the struggles older adults go through as they seek to make a new place their home.
