In this book I use parts of my life story to illustrate what I believe is an important principle. That what spiritual and moral principles guide you is as important as what you say and do as you work to make the world a better place.
The book invites the reader into a conversation, most importantly with themselves:
The biggest challenges to living my values come in the midst of disagreements when I think much is at stake, or as I feel the impact of wrongs done to myself or those whom I care about.
The opportunity for significant learning and growth also come at these moments. My book is an invitation to be more open to this opportunity for growth.
For his 100th birthday I helped my Dad publish a book of his poetry, A Way With Words. You can purchase it on Amazon.com, or get it from me for $10.00 including shipping within the United States. Email below to purchase.
