Life can only be understood backwards, but has to be lived forwards.” — Søren Kierkegaard
Graeme reflects on life events that once seemed overwhelming and reveals how the hardships and sorrows of life can become part of what he calls the stewardship of pain. A powerful reminder to value the people who matter most — our partners, children, friends and those who see possibility in us before we see it in ourselves. It challenges us to find the place where our lives can bring connection, love, service, and joy into a fractured world.
"I devoured this book! Graeme's ability to speak through his life journey with such clarity, humility, humour and disarming honesty, is rare.”
— Gavin Fish - Retired Principal, Life Coach & Mentor
“Read this book slowly. Reflect upon your own journey—and remember the people…”
— Gavin Keller - Educator, Co-founder of KELLER Education
About the Author
Graeme Gilmour has travelled a road he could never have mapped out in advance. From a boy in the first matric class at Fish Hoek High School to a bewildered student among thousands at UCT; from teaching at an elite boys’ school to leading a school in one of the Cape Peninsula’s poorest communities during the years of apartheid; later becoming Provincial CEO of a multi-racial teachers’ union and then joining the pastoral staff of a suburban church. Yet beneath the twists and turns runs a quiet, enduring thread: a calling to serve.
