The Book Beyond Words
In each unremarkable moment, someone somewhere calls out with a whisper ashamed it may be noticed, and a scream desperate to be heard.This book captures the essence of such a moment.This is the moment when we find ourselves clinging to the edge of endurance.Often, when we look back, we can see it as a turning point.However, at the time, it can seem as though we have reached breaking point.These critical points in life often occur when we have strayed far from who we really are.Consequently, our deepest being calls out with a message in an attempt to lead us home to ourselves.Yet the language of this message is often bewildering, as we try to understand what is happening to us.This book reveals how these moments of confusion and crisis contain an opportunity to reclaim our true self and make a new beginning.
