In short, direct prose, John Hayes admonishes us to pay attention to the ready wisdom available in the metaphors of everyday life. Drawn from his studies, his childhood, and anywhere else Hayes could discover lessons for us all, this volume combines humor, philosophy, and traditional and practical wisdom. Both entertaining and thought-provoking, If You Don't Like the Possum???????????? provides new perspectives on old issues and perennial problems from dealing with failure, juggling the multiple personas with all carry with us, and learning from our mistakes, to the dangers of certitude, the consequences of burning bridges, and the complexity of being alone and yet in community. Whether picking cotton or plumbing the Bible, Hayes finds kernels of enlightenment as well as laughter in the myriad experiences of a rich life.
