An Act of Recognition
AN ACT OF RECOGNITION is a powerful, collaborative anthology that spans the seasons of the soul, featuring the voices of over 20 contributing authors. Together, these poems, essays, and other expressions weave the dreams of a New Earth into Now. Lessons in love, grief, and self-discovery draw from the raw emotions and experiences of both personal and collective transformation.
From the depths of human sorrow and suffering to the blooming promise of Spirit, the themes explored range from addiction and heartbreak to empowerment and rage and, finally, to the hopeful emergence of Self. These works reflect the constant push and pull of our shared humanity—the grief of loss, the struggle for justice, the fire of self-love, and the strength of hope. And in each piece, there is a call to recognize the beauty of the human spirit and the power of community.
This anthology is an act of recognition—a celebration of who we are, who we’ve been, and who we are becoming. It offers a light to guide us through the darkest moments and an anchor to remind us of our power. Whether in times of internal war and peace, or intermittent moments of joy, these works invite readers to see themselves through the words of healing humans who were willing to step forward in a transformational time to share pieces of their heart and soul, as architects of a brave new world. Honor their journey by embracing the light and shadow within. GlitterBomb yourself. Together, let’s step out of the darkness and play.
