Book Description
This is Poetry at its best! Same blood, same flesh and same chemical composition. We breathe, we eat, we think and we feel. Our only difference is PRECEPTION!!! The way in which we view people, places and things based on what we know and how we feel and/or have felt. The glass can be half full and/or half empty. Growth and development comes in stages: as children, we see in black in white; as young adults, we see in black, white and grey; and as Men & Women, we see the never ending various shades of colors. The more I learn, the less I realized I know. Over the years I found that it seems everyone would like things to go their way. So it started to make sense why my plans didnt always work out! Thats about the time I learned: to role with the punches in life; to make the best of everything; to always breathe easy; and what I feel is most important was the ability to lose small. My book is a lot of deep thoughts, self reflection, over years of studies. I dont believe that emotions should have the right to override intellect. The mind controls the body, so I think and I dare you to think also. The choices we make are based on what we want and/or feel we need to. Your choices are yours and they may or may not affect my life, but consequences come with all choices choose wisely. Just know that you chose conscious or not.

Book Description
Featured by the New York Times as one of Tina Turner’s favorite books of inspiration—a blend of Eastern wisdom, feng shui, and the simplicity movement. Wabi Sabi is a Japanese expression meaning “wisdom in natural simplicity.” Wabi Sabi helps us to see the beauty in imperfection, to discover that our unique flaws also can lead us to our greatest strengths and treasures. No one is perfect—in fact, we all are perfectly imperfect. That is the paradoxical first lesson shared by Taro Gold in Living Wabi Sabi: The True Beauty of Your Life. What is Wabi Sabi? A universal ideal of beauty, Wabi Sabi celebrates the basic, the unique, and the imperfect parts of our lives. Wabi Sabi is the comfortable joy you felt as a child, happily singing off key, creatively coloring outside the lines, and mispronouncing words with gusto. On a deeper level, Wabi Sabi is the profound awareness of our oneness with all life and the environment. It includes a deep awareness of the choices we make each day, the power we have to accept or reject each moment of our lives, and to find value in every experience. Living Wabi Sabi: The True Beauty of Your Life leads us to know true joy here and now, to reveal the most powerfully positive sides of imperfection. Illustrated with stunning yet simple watercolor art, it is a beautiful keepsake that is sure to become a beloved resource for wisdom in the joy of living. “This beautiful gift book from Gold helps readers to see that imperfection is sometimes the source of the greatest insights and growth.” —Publishers Weekly
