About the Book

Wisdom of life is a multidimensional self empowerment  book – one of a kind. The combination of art, poetry, quotations, illustrations and reflection exercises reinforces and aligns each faculty of our being (mind, soul and spirit) in empowering us. 

 

The book has paintings of artists from earlier centuries – Henri Mattisse (nature), Van Gogh (expression), Shen Chou (Aloneness), Michaelangelo (Spirit), Uragami Gyokudo (Faith), Da Vinci (Differences and Understanding)  as a visual medium to highlight the insights from an artist's soul and reinforce the consciousness of emotions that one faces which brings one to the search of sanity or wisdom. 

 

Wisdom, like a  strand of abstract in life, is brought to consciousness in art pieces, brought to light in clarity in the illustrations, and brings to mind from one’s heart and soul within only by reflections. The soul is brought to restoration from the self empowerment poems.

 

The author also takes the opportunity to share her personal experiences in each chapter. The intensity of the emotions felt in each chapter is not to be felt but to be understood which results in poignant self empowerment  from her modern distinctive style of poems.       

 

It is a motivational self-empowerment book which also encompasses the soul and spiritual aspects. Space, time, questions, abstracts, reflections and cries from the soul to rise up from the emotions is reflected in the cover illustration and the book's contents.

 

Those who seek wisdom in  their disillusionment,  turmoil,  search, defeats, self doubt, discretion and understanding will find this book self empowering.

 

Wisdom in its simplicity and practicality is yet abstract, reaching  one’s soul and spirit – that is the Wisdom of Life.
