âOprah Winfrey
Â
The Book of Awakening by poet and teacher MARK NEPO provides small doses of what really matters, simple truths and stories from everyday lives, plus inspiration from the great wisdom traditions. Each dayâs entry is accompanied by simple, yet profound, practices designed to help us live the life we want by being present to the life we have. For, in the words of St. Francis of Assisi,
Â
âYOU ARE THAT WHICH YOU ARE SEEKING.â
Â
âEach entry in this capacious and tender daybook widens both the eyes and the heart.â
âJane Hirschfield, author of Nine Gates and After
Â
A daily guide for authentic living in hard times, The Book of Awakening is a book to keep your head high, your heart open, and your feet on the ground. âIt is true,â Nepo writes, âIf you canât see what youâre looking for, see whatâs there. It is enough.â
Â
âMark Nepo has written a beautiful book about life, informed by the shadows of death. Iâve been blessed and humbled by reading his words.â
