I love the artwork on the cover and every word within. What spirited high consciousness In one breath, this work lifted me up and at the same time kept me down to earth. I love how his writing combines opposites and how his beautiful wisdom comes through and often caught me unaware. This is a book to refer to time and time again." --Gloria Wendroff, author "Its often hard to put into words one's relationship with self and God and our reason for being. The longing for love and the moments of pure grace that fill our hearts, with the simplest of joys that remind us of the unjourneying I need to take in order to feel God in my being. "This book evoked a deep sense of gratitude the words and images it created, short stories and poetry stirred my heart with an understanding of our deepest yearning.
