Book Reviews of Wide Open: On Living With Purpose and Passion
Book Review: Beautiful Combination of Photographs, Spiritual Musings and Contemplations
Summary: 5 Stars
This luscious book is a mixture of musings, quotes, questions and photographs designed to help you contemplate how you can do exactly what the subtitle says - live with more passion and purpose. This book is not coming from the perspective of a particular spiritual tradition or set of practices, but in my mind the themes around which the book is organized are intrinsically spiritual. Some samples: `Losing Yourself to Find Yourself', `Embracing the Mystery', `Sheltering Fear', and `What Have You Been Given With Which to Give?' The nature photography is especially stunning, so if you enjoy a mixture of text and images, this book is for you.
Summary of Wide Open: On Living With Purpose and Passion
To put it very simply, Dawna Markova is a teacher. A Ph.D. educator, she travels the world working with schools, Fortune 500 companies, and individuals. While coaching people on systems thinking and how to revolutionize the way children are taught, she also teaches people the most important lesson anyone can ever learn -how to listen to one s own heart and how to live with heart and mind wide open to all life s possibilities.Wide Open is the gift of Dawna s wisdom, wrapped up in gorgeous photos. In thirty luminous lessons and passages, Markova encourages us to learn from our wounds, find our gifts, celebrate our values, and live our dreams to live on purpose and with passion. Twenty years ago, Dawna Markova discovered these eternal truths when she faced a life-threatening illness and began a journey of rediscovery. This book follows her path to finding deeper meaning in life. ?In a similar way to A Gift from the Sea, the readers of this book are invited to accompany me on a journey to come to know more intimately the value and purpose of their lives.?
