Taking wisdom from the senses, religious faith, friendships old and new, grief and joy and strength in adversity, this is a collection that is brought to life by love, love for many things: for the written word, for hope in the blackest hours, for the sweet, lingering memory of one who is gone, and for those inspirational leaders who have helped to shape the world in which all these things take place.

Anita Shanti John punctuates her life thus far with this bittersweet collection, which crystallizes the spiritual and emotional ups and downs of life and will
resonate with all readers.
