The Book Of Awakening - January

Since February is right around the corner, I'll be reviewing today the first chapter " January " from The Book Of Awakening by Mark Nepo.

I could tell only by reading the first page that this book is going to be one of my favorites, it is thought provoking and was written creatively! Mark has talked in the first month about appreciating  the human birth and the uniqueness of each one of us without forgetting that our lives came from the same center, agony and fear are felt by everyone we just speak in different voices, he also talked about self love, pleasing others and so many other interesting topics that I'm pretty sure most of us can relate to. 

My favorite quotes of the month : 

• " The reward for uncovering the truth is the experience of honest being. The reward for understanding is the peace of knowing. The reward for loving is being the carrier of love."  January 14
• " When feeling badly about ourselves, we often try on other skins rather than understand and care for our own."  January 10
• " When I look deep enough into you, I find me."  January 6  
• " Part of our journey is this forgetting and remembering. It is a special part of what makes us human. " January 19
• " loving yourself is like feeding a clear bird that no one else can see . " January 25
• " while you are busy pleasing everyone around you, a precious part of you is dying inside. " January 17
