    Transcending Change: Inspiring sayings for testing transitions
    • Words have the power to build, heal and restore. Throughout the history of humankind, words have shaped lives, built nations and influenced futures. They have been used to bring us from the brink of destruction. Words form the very foundation of our existence. With them, bonds are strengthened, families started and friendships established. When we are by ourselves, we mediate on them, find strength, and rediscover our being. We are the products of words that have been said and those that have not been said. The essence of this book is to draw attention to the uplifting power of inspirational sayings for times of testing change. It combines the themes of growth, inspiration, and empowerment during difficult transitions. It conveys a sense of hope and encouragement, inviting readers to find strength and inspiration while navigating life's challenging changes.
