Synopsis
This anthology contains moments when-confronted with soul-splitting tragedy or mind-numbing routine-the mind's patterns abruptly stop and a reservoir of inner resources is revealed. Terrorist attacks, earthquakes, and fires break apart ordered routines so that life, in all its unexpected creativity, bursts forth through the fissures. When the outside world no longer gives us what we expect or need, sometimes an inner wellspring is awakened. Artfully written pieces on the unexpected moments that surprise, inspire and console with their beauty. These essays go beyond the obvious to find the beauty and light in moments of darkness and discomfort as well as in those of the everyday., We expect inspiration in sunsets, blooming flowers, and mountain-top views. And in turn we've come to not expect it elsewhere: in the tragic or mundane. This essay collection challenges this categorization of wonder, light, and beauty. Fourteen authors share their experiences of finding light in unexpected places. In a disaster, on a dreary morning commute. In squawking gulls, aging bodies, and seeing the way a friend signs his name. Wherever you are, whatever thoughts might be racing through your mind, light is available. It might be just around the corner.
