With a longing akin to homesickness, the human heart yearns for nurturing and connection, and a greater understanding of our personal relationship to the wondrous phenomenon we call life. Metaphor is both a journal and a road map, amplifying our perceptions of life, inviting us to transcend the temporal, and make the joyful journey home. These original poems, transcendental quotes and gentle meditations inspire a rediscovery of our love for the magic of the present, for the cycles endlessly repeating, for the mystical and miraculous in nature and in ourselves that we so often ignore.
