A deep book about Courage, Compassion and Connection; these are decisions (mind sets) to lead our way to being wholehearted, to loving ourselves and others. We can not give what we do not have. Real authenticity and love come from within. The journey requires us to get deliberate through deep meditation and prayer, get inspired to make new and different choses in our lives and finally to get going, take action and make each day a new beginning.
